    Global Wrestling Body Clarifies Only WFI Can Select Teams For Asian Meet, Oly Qualifiers, Not Ad-hoc Body

    By IANS News March 09, 2024 • 00:02 AM View: 782
    The United World Wrestling: The United World Wrestling (UWW), the governing body for international wrestling, has clarified that only the officially affiliated Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) can send teams to all competitions conducted under its aegis.

    Currently, the Sanjay Singh-led Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) has been recognised by UWW whereas the Sports Ministry is yet to lift the suspension it imposed following the elections.

    The need to seek clarification from UWW came after Olympic medallist Sakshi Malik claimed that the ad-hoc committee set up by the Sports Ministry will pick teams for the upcoming Senior Asian Wrestling Championships 2024 and the Asian Olympic Qualifying Tournament.
