WFI President Sanjay Singh has dismissed allegations made by wrestlers Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia against former president Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh as baseless. Singh stated that Punia is a banned wrestler involved in politics and that Phogat must undergo selection trials to compete. He asserted that the WFI is democratically run and expressed confidence in Indian wrestlers achieving success in upcoming games, despite the controversy.
