World Bank President Ajay Banga, Bollywood actor Alia Bhatt, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, Olympian wrestler Sakshi Malik and actor Dev Patel are among the Indians who have made it to the prestigious Times's list of 100 most influential people.

Sakshi Malik had announced retirement in December last year after Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh's close aide Sanjay Singh was elected WFI president.

WFI also announced the dates to hold selection trials for an Olympic qualifying event for Paris 2024, as well as the senior Asian championships - both scheduled to take place in April in Kyrgyzstan.

The suspension was imposed by UWW in August last year after the WFI failed to hold elections in time.

Wrestling's world governing body lifted the provisional suspension on India.

Former India wrestler and Olympic medalist Sakshi Malik on Wednesday accused the wrestlers protesting against her and other veteran wrestlers Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia of running propaganda against them for Brij Bhushan Singh.

The crisis in Indian wrestling has taken a fresh twist as hundreds of wrestlers assembled at Jantar Mantar in Delhi to protest against the loss of one crucial year of their careers. They blamed Bajrang Punia, Sakshi Malik and Vinesh Phogat for it.

Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij on Wednesday said that "tactics of returning awards should be stopped". Anil Vij's statement came in connection to announcement of Vinesh Phogat returning her Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna Award and Arjuna Award.

Speaking out on the suspension of the panel led by him that won the elections to the Wrestling Federation of India, Sanjay Singh has said they will first talk to the government and, if that does not work, take legal advice to save the wrestling body.

Olympic medalist Indian wrestler Bajrang Punia on Sunday said that he will not take back his Padma Shri award that he returned to the government until justice is given to his "sisters and daughters" fighting against sexual harassment.
