The Hindu has corrected a report on India’s boxing medals published on August 3, 2026. The report had said women won seven of India’s 10 boxing medals. The newspaper said the correct breakdown was six medals for women and four for men. The correction was published on August 5, 2026, under the paper’s Corrections and Clarifications section. The change affects the gender-wise count, but not the total of 10 medals mentioned in the report.
