RSPB-WFI rift behind Railway grapplers missing Sr Nat'ls?
The New Indian Express
|November 28, 2024
AMAN Sehrawat, the Paris Olympics bronze medalist, and many other famed international wrestlers from Railways, will be deprived of a chance to compete at the Senior Wrestling Championship scheduled to commence in Bengaluru on December 6.
Reason — the Railway Sports Promotion Board (RSPB) says the event is not a recognised one as the Wrestling Federation of India has been suspended by the sports ministry and Delhi High Court has held that the ad-hoc committee will continue to manage the affairs of the WFI.
However, it is understood that the sports ministry has nothing to do with this. Sources say that there has been no instruction to any association or units of the WFI to not participate. Also, the Indian Olympic Association that was tasked to form the ad hoc panel said they could not form one because the United World Wrestling recognizes WFI and they have been sending entries to international competitions since its elections last year.
What makes the issue more complicated is the fact that another member board of the WFI — Services Sports Control Board (SSCB) — has already sent the entries.
