Since 2008, India has won 7 Olympic medals in wrestling. Six of them have been bagged by the Chhatrasal wrestlers.

Antim Panghal said that she wants to emulate her idol, the two-time Olympic medalist, Sushil Kumar.

The Delhi Police had arrested the wrestler on May 23. The sportsman has been lodged in judicial custody since June 2, 2021.

Tokyo Olympics bronze medallist Bajrang Punia said Sushil Kumar is still the best wrestler in the country.

India recorded its best-ever medal haul at a single edition of the Olympic Games after finishing with a total of seven medals in Tokyo.

Sushil Kumar is set to be dropped from the Wrestling Federation of India's annual contracts list along with Pooja Dhanda on account of non-performance, according to PTI.

Wrestling Federation of India assistant secretary Vinod Tomar said that the governing body won't make a decision on Sushil Kumar till the court made its ruling on the case of alleged murder against the wrestler.

The Delhi police on Monday issued a 'Look-out Circular' (LoC) against two-time Olympic medallist Sushil Kumar, who is untraceable since the brawl that led to the death of a young wrestler outside Chhatrasal stadium.

Wrestling World Olympic Qualifying Tournament: The competition will be held in Bulgaria from May 6-9, and Sushil Kumar has been excluded from the Indian team. The team was picked by the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) after a meeting of its selection committee.

National champion Sandeep Singh Mann (74kg) failed to qualify for the Olympic Games at the Asian Qualifiers in Almaty, Kazakhstan on Sunday, keeping veteran Sushil Kumar's Tokyo hopes alive in the weight category.
