The deadly coronavirus spread in China has put the Indian Wrestling Federation to sleep over the Asian Wrestling Championship to be held in Delhi from 18 February. Because of this, China has to agree to play in the championship. China, who finished second in the medal table after winning 16 medals, including five golds, at this year's Asian Championships, have sent their entry into all three style wrestling. The Wrestling Federation cannot prevent China from playing under the rules of the United World Wrestling (UW), the highest international wrestling body. In such a situation, the Ministry of Health and the Indian Embassy are being written to get Chinese wrestlers tested for their blood tests. The Wrestling Association says that Chinese wrestlers will not be allowed to come out of Delhi Airport without appearing in the blood test.

According to the Wrestling Federation of India, he has an idea of the severity of the corona virus regarding the championship. Keeping in mind that wrestlers from other countries have no problem in playing with Chinese wrestlers, a letter is being written to the Ministry of Health. The Wrestling Association says that no country can be stopped from playing on their behalf, but protective measures can definitely be taken. The Ministry of Health will be told that when China or Chinese Taipei wrestlers come to Delhi Airport to play in the championship, they should be investigated separately. Blood tests of these wrestlers should also be investigated along with thermal screening. Also, the Indian Embassy in China is also being written to take concrete steps in this regard. Only after finishing all the tests, these wrestlers should be sent to play in the championship. Vinod Tomar, assistant secretary of the wrestling association, has confirmed the letter to the health ministry.
