HIGHLIGHTS

• United World Wrestling asked for suspension of relations with India after IOC's stance
• IOC suspended discussions with India for hosting of global events ahead of Shooting World Cup
• IOC's actions came in the wake of visa denial to Pakistan shooters after Pulwama terror attack

The United World Wrestling (UWW) has asked all the national federations under it to stop communication with the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) in the wake of visa denial of Pakistani shooters in the recent World Cup here.

The denial of visa to Pakistani shooters had led to the International Olympic Committee suspending discussions with India for hosting future global events.

"UWW recommends to all the affiliated and associated national wrestling federations to suspended their discussions or relations with the Indian wrestling federation," the world body wrote in its letter to national federations, according to a WFI source.

Neither WFI President Brij Bhusan Sharan nor Assistant Secretary Vinod Tomar could be reached for comments.

The denial of visas to Pakistani shooters in the Delhi World Cup last month has jeopardised India's chances of hosting the Olympics or any global event with the IOC suspending all such discussions with the country and recommending that no big tournament be awarded to it.

India denied visas to Pakistani shooters for the World Cup in the wake of the Pulwama terror attack, which killed 40 CRPF personnel. As a result, the IOC revoked the two Olympic quotas on offer in the men's 25m Rapid Fire Pistol competition of the event.

It remains to be seen to what extent the UWW directive would affect Indian wrestlers.

There are plenty of examples where conflicts between the two nations / countries never had an impact on their sportsperson, sporting events, players, actors etc etc ....... there is a reason all these people are called ambassadors of their home countries, and in my opinion should be treated like ambassadors.

india is the only country that has gone down to this new low level of denying visas to sportsmen, players and actors etc.

Their media denied hosting of a tv show to one of their own politicians from opposition. That is actually reflective of how narrow minded and close minded these people are.
