The Delhi High Court has dismissed the petitions filed by wrestlers Bajrang Punia, Sakshi Malik, Vinesh Phogat, and Satyawart Kadian challenging the Wrestling Federation of India’s (WFI) December 2023 elections, in which Sanjay Kumar Singh, a close associate of Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, was elected as the federation’s new president.
