Vinesh Phogat Meets PM – PM Modi meets Vinesh: Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat, who recently underwent an elbow surgery, on Monday met Prime Minister Narendra Modi along with her family.
The 27-year-old had made a shock first-round exit from the Tokyo Olympics. She entered the Games as one of India’s strongest medal contenders.
The former world championship bronze-medallist was part of meetings that Modi had with Tokyo Games athletes both before and after the Olympics and got a pep talk from him.
