Indian wrestler Aman Sehrawat has been banned for one year by the Wrestling Federation after his weight exceeded the allowed limit during the World Wrestling Championship. The young star, who had recently won a bronze medal at the Paris Olympics 2024, has been one of India’s most promising wrestlers in recent years.
According to reports, Sehrawat failed to meet the official weight requirement in his category, which is considered a serious violation of the competition rules. The wrestling committee confirmed that the one-year suspension is effective immediately, preventing him from taking part in any national or international tournaments during this period.
Aman Sehrawat’s ban comes as a major setback for Indian wrestling, especially ahead of important upcoming events. Many fans and experts expressed disappointment, saying that such incidents could harm the athlete’s career if not handled carefully. Sehrawat has reportedly accepted the decision and said he will focus on improving his fitness and discipline.
The Wrestling Federation also mentioned that this serves as a reminder for all athletes to maintain proper weight management and follow the official guidelines strictly.
