WFI Respects Delhi HC Order, To Allow Vinesh To Compete In Trials; Asiad Participation Still Uncertain: Sources
Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyaya: Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) will not challenge the Delhi High Court’s order permitting Vinesh Phogat to participate in the Asian Games 2026 selection trials, federation sources confirmed on Sunday.
The development comes a day after the Delhi High Court directed the WFI to allow the Olympian and two-time World Championships medallist to compete in the trials, which are scheduled for May 30 and 31 in New Delhi.
The court also ordered that the entire selection process be video-recorded and monitored by independent observers from the Sports Authority of India (SAI) and the Indian Olympic Association (IOA).
