Paris Olympics 2024: Will Indian female wrestler Vinesh Phogat get the Olympic silver medal or not? The Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS) was to give its decision on this today. The whole country was waiting for this decision, but now they will have to wait for a few more days for this.
Actually, today an update has come from the sports tribunal, but the decision has not come. The update is that the decision which was to come today, will now come on August 16. The decision will come regarding Vinesh Phogat at 6 pm according to Paris time and 9:30 pm according to Indian time.
Let us tell you that Vinesh Phogat, who had confirmed her medal by reaching the final of women’s 50 kg freestyle wrestling after winning the pre-quarterfinals, quarterfinals and semi-finals in a single day, was disqualified on the morning of the final. Vinesh Phogat’s weight was found to be more than 50 kg and thus she missed the final as well as the medal. However, on the same evening, she knocked the door of the Sports Arbitration and placed her two demands before the court. The court had already given its decision on one of these, but the case is still going on regarding the second demand.
It is worth noting that Vinesh Phogat had written to the Court of Arbitration for Sports a few hours before the final that my weight should be checked now and I should be allowed to play in the final. When this was written by Vinesh, the final was to be held about 3 and a half hours later. In such a situation, the court did not accept this appeal and said that everything has been decided and now the final will start shortly. At the same time, Vinesh’s second appeal was that since she has won till the semi-finals, at least she should get a silver medal jointly. This issue is still before the Sports Arbitration and the decision on this will now come on August 16.
