Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat announced her retirement on Thursday following disqualification from the Paris Olympics 2024. Phogat, who was disqualified from the 50 Kg freestyle final for exceeding the weight limit, shared an emotional message on X: “Maa kushti jeet gayi, main haar gayi” (Wrestling has defeated me, I have lost). In response, Congress paid tribute on Instagram, stating, “Thank you for giving wrestling new dimensions and making the sport beautiful for all of us. You never gave up, whether in public life or in wrestling. The entire country salutes your spirit and courage.”
