The National table tennis championships venue has been moved from Sonipat to Panchkula, near Chandigarh, and the dates advanced to February 15-23.
The dates have been advanced so that the Indian squad may reach Doha well in time for the qualifying rounds of the $200,000 WTT Contender Doha beginning on February 28.
Meanwhile, the National cadet and sub-junior championships is due to start at Indore on February 18.
However, the host has requested the TTFI to reschedule the event by a day or two, citing accommodation-related issues on February 17.

Consequently, the youth and junior Nationals have been moved to Sonipat in March.
