WFI to discuss RSPB's call to skip nationals
The New Indian Express Mysuru
|December 06, 2024
AS the National Wrestling Championships begins in Bengaluru on Friday, all eyes will be on the annual general meeting (AGM) of the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) scheduled on the last day (Sunday).
As the Railway Sports Promotion Board (RSPB) has decided not to field its wrestlers, the championship, as reported by this daily, will not see participation from most of the country's elite wrestlers including the Paris Olympics bronze medallist Aman Sehrawat.
A similar situation arose last year when the WFI held the nationals in Pune while the ad-hoc panel, which was then running the day-to-day affairs of the federation, organised it in Jaipur with the RSPB being the hosts.
