Sports ministry suspended Wrestling Federation of India's executive body Sunday, three days after Sanjay Singh, a close aide of Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, was elected its president.
The Sports Ministry on Sunday suspended the newly-elected WFI for not following due procedure while announcing the dates for the U15 and U20 National Championships in Gonda, UP.
Sports ministry says in letter to IOA that it took note of ‘compelling situation arising out of (continuing) influence & control of former office bearers’ on working of WFI.
