NEW DELHI: Following its latest round of elections, the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) has unanimously elected Brijbhushan Singh as its president for a third successive term.
Singh alongside other re-elected office bearers will be holding their positions till 2022.
The elections were held under the supervision of the Himachal Pradesh HC judge (retd) Justice R B Misra on Sunday. Singh will once again have ID Nanavati as his deputy while VN Prasood and Satyapal Deshwal remain secretary general and treasurer respectively.
