‘PROTEST NOT GOOD FOR SPORT’

New Delhi: Indian Olympic Association (IOA) President PT Usha came down heavily on the wrestlers who have resumed their protest against WFI Brij Bhushan accusing him of sexual harassment. PT Usha said the wrestlers’ protest on the streets is tarnishing India’s image, adding, protest by the elite wrestlers equates to indiscipline.

IOA has established an adhoc panel comprising three members to manage the affairs of the WFI until a new governing body is elected. The panel includes former shooter Suma Shirur, Bhupendra Singh Bajwa who is the chief of the Wushu Association of India, and will be led by a retired high court judge.
