Capital of Jharkhand, Ranchi was to host the event from June 1-4 but it made a late pull out due to financial issues and Bhubaneswar was then chosen by the Athletics Federation of India as the venue.

In the year 1989 India successfully hold the gold medals in 8 events.  And 9 silver medals and 5 bronze medals and India ranked second in that championship. In the year 2013 India earned 5 bronze, 6 silver and 2 gold medals.
