Wushu athlete goes incommunicado, family worried

New Delhi, Sep 22 (PTI) Wushu athlete Mepung Lamgu has gone incommunicado since being denied visa to travel to China for the Asian Games, leaving her family members in Arunachal Pradesh worried and clinging to hope that she wouldn’t take any “extreme step”.

The 20-year-old is one of the three wushu players from Arunachal Pradesh who were denied visas to travel to China for the Hangzhou Asian Games.

She was “crying inconsolably” when her brother Gandhi Lamgu, a doctor in Itanagar, last spoke to her just after the news broke on Thursday. He hasn’t been able to contact her since that conversation.

“Now she’s not even taking our calls, and it’s coming switched off. So we are also very worried about her, kahin kuch kar na de ro ro ke (hope she doesn’t take any extreme step as she is crying inconsolably),” Gandhi told
