By IANS News December 24, 2023 • 17:32 PM View: 156

Sub Junior National Championships: The Sports Ministry has asked the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) to establish a temporary panel to oversee the operations of the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI).

Sources said a letter has been sent to the IOA, proposing that the temporary committee be entrusted with overseeing and regulating WFI's operations, including the responsibility for athlete selection.

The Ministry earlier on Sunday suspended the Sanjay Singh-led new WFI body over 'hasty' announcement to hold nationals.
