NEW DELHI, Sept. 22 (Xinhua) -- The provisional suspension of seven Indian athletes selected for the upcoming Commonwealth Games in New Delhi was lifted on Wednesday.

The suspension was lifted after the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) re-classified methylhexaneamine, for which the athletes tested positive.

"The provisional suspension has been lifted," National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) chief Rahul Bhatnagar told the Press Trust of India.
