The Asian Games flag-hoisting ceremony is delayed, disrupting preparations as multiple delegations wait for updates from organisers. Reports say the delay affects countries including India, which are made to wait while the ceremony schedule is clarified.

Outlets describe the disruption as being caused by unspecified issues, without detailing the exact reason for the delay. As a result, teams appear to be holding position pending instruction, with organisers reportedly working to resolve the problem before the ceremony proceeds.

Both reports frame the delay as a disruption to planned proceedings rather than a dispute involving any single country, and they focus on the lack of immediate explanation from organisers. The coverage emphasizes the uncertainty and the resulting inconvenience for participating delegations.
