Saying phogat

Union Home Minister Amit Shah: The celebration turned into sombre in less than 24 hours on Wednesday in the ancestral village of Vinesh Phogat, the wrestler who was disqualified from the Paris Olympics for being overweight, in Haryana’s Charki Dadri.

Family members of the wrestler were celebrating her victory on Tuesday night after she became the first Indian woman wrestler to reach the final of the Olympic Games with a convincing 5-0 win over Cuba's Yusneylis Guzman Lopez.

Her uncle Mahavir Phogat became emotional when she was disqualified.
