Prime Minister Modi has spoken to Indian Olympic Association (IOA) President PT Usha and sought information. PM Modi has asked to consider all options in this situation. Along with this, PM Modi has asked to register protest before the Paris Olympic Committee regarding the disqualification of Vinesh Phogat.
Earlier, the Indian Olympic Association said that it is regrettable that the Indian team shares the news of Vinesh Phogat being disqualified from the women’s wrestling 50 kg category. Despite the best efforts made by the team overnight, this morning her weight was a few grams more than 50 kg. No further comment will be made by the team at this time. The Indian team requests you to respect Vinesh’s privacy.
