WFI Hits Back at Vinesh Phogat: Nirmala Boora Ineligible, It's a State Matter

  • WFI refutes Vinesh Phogat's claim of unfair treatment towards wrestler Nirmala Boora at national trials.
  • WFI stated Boora was ineligible as she sought to compete under Haryana Police, an organization not affiliated with the federation.
  • Vinesh Phogat alleged Boora was unjustly denied participation without official reason.
  • WFI official questioned Boora's district-level participation and her attempt to represent an unaffiliated body.
  • WFI views this as a state-level issue and has requested a report from the state body.

Why It Matters: It highlights sports body accountability and adherence to rules.
