The United World Wrestling (UWW) announced that they have lifted the suspension on the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) with immediate effect on 13th February 2024. The candidates for this commission (WFI’s Athletes’ Commission) shall be active athletes or retired for no longer than four years. However, the UWW directed the national body to provide written guarantees that there would be no discriminatory action against the protesting wrestlers and that the WFI would have to re-convene the elections of its Athletes’ Commission no later than July 1, 2024.


      UWW had placed the WFI under provisional suspension on August 23 last year after the Indian body failed to hold an election in due course.
