Vinesh Phogat has opted to fight back against the decision of IOC to disqualify her from the Paris Olympics 2024 Womens's 50 Kg freestyle wrestling competition. She has appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sports and asked to be given the silver medal. Vinesh cleared the weight category when she won the bouts to the semifinal and only failed to meet the weight criteria on the day of the gold medal match. Using the logic, if CAS approves, Vinesh might be awarded a joint-silver medal. Bajrang Punia, Sakshi Malik, Geeta and Ritu Phogat Launch 'Give Vinesh Silver' Campaign On Social Media in Support Of Disqualified Star Wrestler.
