Even before the Olympics have begun, the tussle between wrestlers, Sushil Kumar and Narsingh Yadav is taking centre stage.Over the last few days, there has been a raging debate on which wrestler should represent India in the 74kg category at the 2016 Rio Olympics. Both Sushil Kumar and Narsingh Yadav are vying for the lone Indian spot at the Games.
Sushil Kumar is bracing up for a long legal battle in the hope of conducting trails against Narsingh Yadav for 2016 Rio Olympics if he he fails to get relief from the Delhi High Court. However, the HC has made it clear that it would only intervene in the matter as a last resort after going through the replies of the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI), sports ministry and the Sports Authority of India (SAI).
"I am not going to sit quietly. If I have to win my battle through courts, then let it be. I am just concentrating on my training and fitness as this is what I am good at. The court matter will be decided by my mentor and father-in-law Satpal Singh and the coach," Sushil said.
