She was 2 kgs over weight at the end of the previous day's match. Then she spent the whole night trying to loose those extra kilos. 
 On Tuesdays weigh in, she was still 150gms over weight and they requested the organizers to give a grace 1-2hrs to lose the extra weight but they didn't agree.

Rule is rule at such international levels. I am frustrated with coach and other staff who are not aware of this or ignored or didn't want to get any medal because of politics relations. God knows what happened. But I am feeling so sad for vinesh.  
 India will never learn from its mistakes and keep going downwards.  
 I am saying this every country hates India. They don't want us to grow up and even our govt doesn't want us to grow. Corruption killed our so beautiful country.

Yeah 💯 agreed. It might be the case. Anyway Olympics will not help her in any case. Jab govt n hi sath chd diya to unse kaise expect kar sakte hai.

How can the wrestler not be aware of the high weight ? What diet does she take after her semifinal? Did her coach take any precautions? Or is he aware? So many questions......

Conspiracy against Vinesh Phogat!

Conspiracy against Vinesh Phogat!- Grapevine

Welcome to News Discussion's Private Community

Do you also think the government might be involved in this?

Heartbreak for me personally as I was (and still am) super proud of what she had achieved provided the treatment that she got during the wrestler’s protest.

A conspiracy maybe?

Look at the below video
In the end it looked like susaki was not even trying. I can be very wrong, so correct me if I am. What exactly happened here?

Her disqualification owing 100 gm overweight is pending for review in Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), seeking a joint silver medal.

Delay from Indian end
- The court observed that such a scenario where they want intervention, they should have immediately reached out to Olympics committee and requested postponing of the final bout. 
- Indian staff and IOA were quick to update condolences on Twitter, but didn't seek redressal. 
- It happened a day late, when final had already been fixed with the semifinalist who lost to Vinesh.
- The grievance seeked was not fight, but joint silver medal for Vinesh

Court's response
- The panel sympathises with Vinesh on human level
- They have ordered changes to be made to the weigh in rule, as they agreed 100gm could be water weight/bloating
- They also commented that rules cannot be changed, but will consider if provisions allow
- The appeal was made on 8 Aug 2024 (after the final happened), case was to be heard on 9 Aug. They deferred the verdict to 11 Aug (closing day of Olympics), again deferred to 13 Aug 6 pm (today) and now stretched to 16 Aug.
- There has been too much media attention on the case, they cannot go wrong here.

I have been following Vinesh Phogat news, and it is truly a shitshow

Vinesh Phogat takes down the World no. 1 and Tokyo Olympic gold medallist

This entire situation is too fishy. Who is to be held accountable? What was her team doing? She qualifies for all matches but ends up getting disqualified for the final? 

Modi waits for an entire day to tweet about it only after she gets disqualified?

Something feels so off.

Vinesh Phogat disqualification doesn't make sense

After Vinesh Phogat's exit due to being overweight, Aman and his team took no risks in making sure that he managed to be under the limit.
