The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) today announced a 524-member contingent of athletes for the Asian Games in Indonesia beginning from 18th of August.  

The contingent comprises 277 men and 247 women athletes.  

Athletics will have the highest number of representation with 52 eyeing for medals.

The IOA has decided against sending the men and women football teams this time as they are ineligible under the existing criteria set by the Olympic body.
