Suniel Shetty signed as anti-doping brand ambassador NADA

Actor Suniel Shetty has been selected as the brand ambassador of National Anti-Doping Agency NADA.
The country’s anti-doping body is hoping that his celebrity status helps its efforts to clean up sports in the country from the menace.
More than 150 athletes have failed dope tests this year though bodybuilders make up more than one-third of these offenders.
This is not a welcome sign with less than eight months to go for the Tokyo Olympic Games.
The suspension of National Anti-Doping Laboratory by the WADA earlier this year is another issue facing the country now that dope samples collected by the National Anti-Doping Agency from the athletes will have to be tested outside India.
National Anti Doping Agency (NADA) was set up as registered society under the Societies Registration Act of 1890 on November 24, 2005 with a mandate for Dope free sports in India. The primary objectives are to implement anti-doping rules as per WADA code, regulate dope control programme, to promote education and research and creating awareness about doping and its ill effects.
Sh.Navin Agarwal is the Director General of National Anti-Doping Agency.
