The Wrestling Federation of India (WFI), India’s governing body for wrestling, has faced suspension from the United World Wrestling (UWW) due to ongoing controversies and prolonged delays in conducting essential elections.
As a consequence of this suspension, Indian wrestlers will be unable to compete under the Indian flag in the upcoming World Championships.
Instead, they will participate as ‘neutral athletes’ in the Olympic-qualifying World Championships.
