We cannot do this at this stage. Indian cause has to be placed on a higher pedestal.<\/p>\n<p>Individuals may suffer but the country has to be placed higher.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He (WFI counsel) is pointing out relevant facts. They (WFI) are the people who will have to take decision. I will only interfere as a last resort. You cannot deny the fact that one of them (Yadav) has given India a place in the Olympics,&#8221; the court said.<\/p>\n<p>The court, which directed WFI to give a hearing to Sushil, also told his advocate, &#8220;you both (Sushil and Yadav) are equally placed. How can I decide this? They (WFI) are the experts. Let them decide first. I cannot interfere in this.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>During the hearing, WFI&#8217;s counsel told the court, &#8220;he (Sushil) is going to the Prime Minister and the media.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>To this, Sushil&#8217;s counsel said, &#8220;I am going because I am not getting any response from the federation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>At the fag end of hearing, the court asked WFI to sort out the issue and observed, &#8220;I think everyone needs to focus on the training aspect. You cannot have such disputes. How these athletes will concentrate.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The court was hearing the plea filed by Sushil in which he has sought a direction to WFI to conduct a selection trial to decide who will represent India in the category at Rio Games.<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211; PTI )<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Delhi High Court today said &#8220;individuals may suffer&#8221; but the country has to be placed on a &#8220;higher pedestal&#8221; and left it to Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) to decide on India&#8217;s challenge in 74 kg men&#8217;s freestyle at the Rio Olympics, a bone of contention between wrestlers Sushil Kumar and Narsingh Pancham Yadav.
