After the sports ministry's request, the three-member panel created by IOA is planning to organise the U-15 and U-20 categories within the next 40 days in Gwalior. This is happening after the ongoing crisis in Indian wrestling took a new twist on Wednesday when hundreds of junior wrestlers assembled at Jantar Mantar for a symbolic three-hour protest against the loss of one crucial year of their careers, blaming top grapplers Bajrang Punia, Sakshi Malik and Vinesh Phogat.
