-Steps taken towards preparations for Los Angeles Olympics

Jind. Olympian and Congress MLA from Julana Vinesh Phogat on Friday announced her retirement and expressed her desire to play again in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.

MLA Vinesh Phagat, who has entered politics, has written on social media that people kept asking whether Paris is the end. For a long time I didn’t have the answer. I needed to get away from the mat, from the pressure, from expectations, even from my dreams. It took me time to understand the burden of my journey, the ups and downs, the heartbreaks, the sacrifices, the versions of me that the world never saw and somewhere in that thinking, I realized the truth, I still love this game. I still want to compete. I am taking steps back towards Olympics-2028.

Julana MLA Vinesh Phogat wrote in the post shared on social media, this time I am not walking alone, my son is joining my team, my biggest motivation is my little cheerleader on this path to the Olympics. Discipline, routine, fight… it’s all in my system. No matter how far I went, a part of me remained on the mat, ‘the fire never went out’. He was simply buried under fatigue and noise.

It is noteworthy that Vinesh Phaygat became the first female wrestler to reach the final of the 2024 Paris Olympics. However, he was 100 grams overweight in the final, due to which he was disqualified. There was a lot of controversy over his disqualification. Amidst these controversies, Vinesh entered politics and contested the 2024 assembly elections from Julana on a Congress ticket and reached the assembly after winning.
