Yogeshwar Happy To See WFI Holding Selection Trials, Says PM Modi Is Making Efforts To Get 2036 Olympics To India
Senior Asian Wrestling Championships: Olympic bronze medallist wrestler Yogeshwar Dutt expressed his happiness over the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) conducting the selection trials for the upcoming Senior Asian Wrestling Championships to be held in Amman, Jordon later this month.
Dutt said he was happy to see that the WFI has got the reins of the sport after the government lifted its suspension. He said Prime Minister Narendra Modi is making all efforts to get the 2036 Olympics to India, and it would be a matter of great pride if India gets the games.
"I would like to thank the government for lifting the ban on the WFI and allowing it to run the sport in the country. So, after two years, we are conducting selection trials to pick the squad for the Asian Championships," he told IANS on the sidelines of the trials at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium on Saturday.
