Vinesh Phogat Challenges Show‑Cause Notice, Calls WFI Action Arbitrary

In her petition, Vinesh Phogat contests the validity of the show‑cause notice served by the WFI, labeling it as a product of capricious and hostile behavior. She argues that the federation’s measures have hindered her comeback to the sport following her maternity break. The High Court has also heard a separate plea where Phogat seeks the implementation of transparent, structured guidelines for the return of female athletes after pregnancy.
