Delhi HC Pulls Up WFI Over Vinesh Phogat Eligibility Decision The Delhi High Court's recent ruling against the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) over its decision to declare Vinesh Phogat ineligible for domestic events has sparked a heated debate within India's sports community.
On the surface, this appears to be an isolated incident, but upon closer examination, it reveals deeper issues with how Indian sporting bodies treat their athletes.
The WFI's decision to bar Phogat from competing in domestic events was met with skepticism by the court, which noted that the federation had deviated from its earlier practice of allowing experienced athletes like Phogat to participate.
