Reetika, a promising heavyweight wrestler in the 76 kg category and one of the few from her country to succeed in higher weight classes, was provisionally suspended on July 7. This action followed a positive doping test from a urine sample collected by NADA during selection trials in New Delhi. Reetika was scheduled to leave next week for the Ranking Series tournament in Budapest, starting July 17, and later in the World Championships in September.

It is also learnt that the federation officials summoned the other wrestlers at the national training camp and cautioned them about indulging in career-threatening activities. 'We have reminded them to stick to the supplements that are officially procured and are properly tested.
