The ad-hoc committee for wrestling on Saturday said it will go ahead with the trials to select the teams for the upcoming Asian Championships and Continental Olympic Qualifiers and the entries will be sent to UWW, the global body, through the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI).


United World Wrestling (UWW), the world body for the sport, had on Friday came out in support of WFI, saying it will accept entries for international competitions only from the WFI, which has been suspended by the Sports Ministry, and no other entity can perform that role.


However, on Saturday, a IOA-constituted ad-hoc committee official said that the trials “will be held as scheduled” and the “entries for competition will be sent by the WFI”.
