New Delhi. Among the personalities who are being discussed in the country and the world at this time, female wrestler Vinesh Phogat is very high. In India, such an atmosphere has been created that Vinesh should be given silver at any cost. She was out of the final of women's freestyle 50 kg wrestling due to being 100 grams overweight. Now this entire matter is before the arbitration court CAS, which can give its decision tomorrow.


Harish Salve is advocating

 

Harish Salve is pleading on behalf of the Indian Olympic Association and Vinesh Phogat. This is the same Salve who fought Kulbhushan Jadhav's case in the International Court. According to a report in the Indian Express, Harish Salve has cited the distance between the Champ de Mars Arena, the venue of the wrestling competition, and the Athletes Village as the biggest reason for Vinesh's failure.


Told the reason for weight gain

 

The report states that the excess of 100 grams is 0.1-0.2 percent of Phogat's weight. This may also be due to the activities that take place in the human body during summer, which leads to more water retention. One argument given is that the athlete competed three times in a single day, so it may also be due to increased muscle mass.


No conspiracy with Vinesh

 

The lawyer has denied the possibility of fraud and has also flatly rejected the allegation of overeating. Now the entire matter is in the court and it has to give its verdict. Meanwhile, there is a lot of politics going on in India on Vinesh Phogat and the Haryana government has already announced to give the reward given to the person who wins the silver medal. PM Modi also took cognizance of this matter, after which the matter reached the tribunal.
