WFI President Sanjay Singh: The Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) on Tuesday suspended Paris Olympics bronze medallist Aman Sehrawat for one year after the 22-year-old was disqualified for exceeding the 57kg weight limit at the World Championships in Zagreb, Croatia, in September.

The suspension, which came into effect on September 23, bars Sehrawat from participating in any wrestling-related activities — both at the national and international levels — until September 2026. The decision was confirmed by WFI President Sanjay Singh, who told IANS that the wrestler’s response to the disciplinary notice was found “unsatisfactory.”

“The Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) has announced the suspension of Olympic medallist Aman Sehrawat for violating weight regulations. The suspension, effective from September 23, prohibits him from taking part in any wrestling activities at both national and international levels,” Sanjay Singh told IANS.
