Indian Wrestling Association President Sanjay Singh had arrived at the inauguration of the Under 23 Senior National Wrestling Championship organized by Maharishi Dayanand University, Haryana Wrestling Association, Rohtak.
Indian Wrestling Association President Sanjay Singh took the wrestler Vinesh Phogat to task and said that Vinesh should be asked how she fought in two weights in one day. Vinesh had tried to make the wrestling championship held in Gonda an arena of politics. This was the reason why it remained stuck at the fourth position. If she comes on the mat like a player, she will be welcomed and if she does politics, she will be given a political answer.

Big change made in wrestling

Sanjay Singh told that a big change has been made in wrestling. Older players used to wrestle with younger players and this was the reason why they were not able to get medals in the senior category. After a lot of deliberations, the Wrestling Federation has excluded older players from wrestling, because due to the older players being in wrestling, the stamina of the junior players was waning by the time they became senior.

Now he hopes that medals will start coming in the senior category. The Wrestling Federation’s preparations for the upcoming international competitions are complete. Two foreign coaches have been appointed by the Federation, due to which there is a possibility of good results in the upcoming competitions. He said that there was never any politics in the wrestling association and some people had tried to do politics and were thrown out.
