By IANS News March 04, 2024 • 19:22 PM View: 943

The Delhi High Court: The Delhi High Court on Monday issued notice on petition by wrestlers Bajrang Punia, Vinesh Phogat, Sakshi Malik, and her husband Satyawart Kadian, seeking to annul and declare the recent Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) elections as illegal for violating the Sports Code.

Justice Sachin Datta, who heard the case, sought a response from the Centre through the Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports, the WFI and the federation's Ad-Hoc Committee.

As Centre's counsel sought time to seek instructions in the matter, the court listed the case for next hearing on March 7.
