The IOA ad-hoc committee took the first step towards conducting the impending polls by gathering the voters list, which will be required to form the electoral college. It is noteworthy that the government has set a June 30 deadline for Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) elections.

The third member of the ad-hoc committee, a retired high court judge under whose supervision the elections will be conducted, is yet to be appointed by the Indian Olympic Association (IOA).
