NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Friday refused to interfere with the Delhi high court order allowing Olympian wrestler Vinesh Phogat to participate in the selection trials for the 2026 Asian Games, observing that the athlete had brought laurels to the country through her achievements in wrestling.“If anybody else, it would have been on a different footing. She’s made the country proud”, the apex court said.The top court’s order came on a plea filed by the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) challenging the high court direction permitting Phogat to compete in the trials.The SC, however, flagged concerns with the manner in which the HC examined the matter but decided not to interfere with their order.Also read: Vinesh Phogat’s comeback hits fresh roadblock as WFI moves Supreme Court against Delhi HC order
