Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat was disqualified before the women's 50kg freestyle final at the Paris Olympics on Wednesday after failing to make weight, the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) said.
Three bronze medals in the kitty, at least a silver assured, the Indian contingent is already confirmed of 4 medals from the Paris Olympic Games. All three medals that India have at the moment, have come from shooting, with Manu Bhaker playing a big role in two of them. Wrestler Vinesh Phogat's entry into the women's 50m freestyle wrestling final has assured India of a silver medal at least, though the veteran grappler would be keen to script history by clinching the prized yellow metal in the final on Wednesday.
The announcement late on Tuesday also said that vehicles with faulty trunk latches will be repaired free of charge.

PARIS: Simone Biles might be the world's most decorated gymnast but that did not stop her from producing uncharacteristic errors during her two final performances at the Paris Olympics on Monday (Aug 5), reminding her vast fan base that she, too, is human.
She grappled on the streets with an "unjust system" without a care in the world and on Tuesday Vinesh Phogat brought a lot of that panache to the mat as well, taking down one big name after another to become India's first woman wrestler to enter the finals of the Olympic Games.
