The 19th running of this major competition, which will take place at Budapest’s National Athletics Centre, will feature a 28-person Indian squad. Athletes from India will compete in 16 of the 49 events that will take place.
Along from Chopra, other Indian competitors competing in the highlight event include hurdler Jyothi Yarraji, long jumper Murali Sreeshankar, and steeple chaser Avinash Sable.
Tajinderpal Singh Toor, the shot putter who holds the Asian record, withdrew from the August 19–27 competition because he was still healing from a groyne injury he had at the Asian Championships in July.
High jumper Tejaswin Shankar, 800m runner K M Chanda, and 20km race walker Priyanka Goswami; all national record holders; have all chosen to forego the competition in order to concentrate on the Asian Games, which will be held in Hangzhou, China, from 23 to October 8.
Chopra, the current Diamond League champion, is aiming to earn a gold medal in Budapest after taking home a silver at the most recent competition in Eugene, Oregon, in 2022. Here is a list of every Indian athlete and a peek at their Budapest 2023 edition:
