Celebrated wrestler Vinesh Phogat was greeted with a grand reception upon her return to the country, as hundreds of supporters assembled outside New Delhi's IGI Airport, demonstrating overwhelming solidarity on Saturday.

Notable figures, including Bajrang Punia, Sakshi Malik, and local panchayat leaders, were present to welcome Vinesh. This reception came after her poignant departure from the Paris Olympics 2024, where she faced disqualification from the 50kg final due to being overweight on the day of the event.
