New Delhi: Tokyo Olympics silver medalist and a current Indian Politician, Bajrang Punia has been handed a 4-year ban from the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) after the former failed to send his sample during national trials. The ban on Punia came after the Olympic wrestler refused to submit a sample for a doping test on March 10 during the national team selection trials.

This decision came after NADA had initially suspended Bajrang Punia on April 23 for the same offence, which led to a subsequent suspension by the World Governing Body, UWW.
