PAK TEAM CLEARED

NEW DELHI: Decks were on Wednesday cleared for participation of Pakistani grapplers at the Asian Junior Championship after Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) agreed to give an undertaking that the movement of the contingent from the neighbouring nation will be restricted to the competition venue.

“We got a call from a home ministry official that wrestlers from Pakistan can come to India. They will be granted visas,” WFI assistant secretary Vinod Tomar said. “We have to ensure that Pakistani wrestlers do not go anywhere except the hotel and the venue,” Tomar added.
