The Supreme Court on Thursday closed proceedings in Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) appeal against wrestler Vinesh Phogat’s participation in Asian Games selection trials after she failed to qualify, clarifying it should not be seen as a “reiteration” of the Delhi high court’s adverse observations against the federation on May 22.

“In view of the subsequent developments, the present special leave petition has become infructuous,” said a bench of justices PS Narasimha and Aravind Kumar.
On May 29, the Supreme Court allowed Phogat to participate in the trials even as it took exception to the high court order declaring the WFI refusal to consider past accomplishments of iconic players exclusionary.
On Thursday, senior advocate DN Goburdhan, appearing for the WFI, informed the court that Phogat was allowed to participate in the trials as per its order. “She did not succeed, and she created havoc there,” Goburdhan said.
