Lifting of WFI's suspension paves way for established grapplers to return to nat'l fold for Asian meet
THE last two years have not been ideal for the country's wrestlers. The sport that has given India at least an Olympic medal since 2008 was in shambles ever since the historic protest broke out in January 2023 against the Wrestling Federation of India's former beleaguered chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh.
The unrest, uncertainties and upheaval could finally be laid to rest as the sports ministry on Tuesday revoked the suspension of the WFI which was imposed on December 24, 2023. The decision is a big relief for the federation that can now function with bit more freedom.
More than the WFI, it's a huge respite for the wrestlers, who were in conundrum for the past couple of years. It not only impacted their preparations ahead of the Paris Olympics last year but also forced them to skip several international tournaments.
