Sushil, Yogeshwar hit by FILA weight changes

Yashvir, also a former national coach, concurred with Satpal saying the decision will disrupt the preparations.

"We already had plans in place for the 2016 Rio Games. Now we have to start afresh and decide where we can accommodate Sushil and Yogeshwar. We were aiming for gold medals in both the categories but now all our plans have gone haywire," Yashvir said.

FILA in their bid to include two weight categories in the women's section for the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics has re-worked weight categories in the men's freestyle and Greco Roman.

The light classes in men's freestyle will be 57 and 65 kilograms instead of 55kg, 60kg and 66kg while in Greco-Roman, the two light classes will be 59kg and 66kg rather than 55kg, 60kg and 66kg as in the London Olympics.

Wrestling was dropped from the list of Olympic core sports in February but was reinstated in September after changes intended to modernise wrestling.
