Narsingh Yadav cleared of doping charges
The wrestler faced trouble when he had failed a dope test ahead of Rio Olympics.
The decision on Monday, cleared his way to compete in the mega sports event where Indian wrestlers have performed strongly in the past two editions.
Amid reports that his food was spiked resulting in wrestler Narsingh Yadav testing postive for a banned substance, the athlete had failed a second dope test too, said media reports.
According to earlier media reports, the second dope test conducted on July 5 by the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) has also dismissed any tampering of his food as alleged by him.
