15 wrestlers. One state. All from Haryana. So, what makes Haryana India’s wrestling powerhouse?
For generations, wrestling has been part of Haryana’s culture, with traditional kushti and akharas helping young athletes get into the sport early. Over time, the state also embraced mat wrestling, creating a strong ecosystem for athletes to train and compete.
Olympic champions like Sushil Kumar, Yogeshwar Dutt and Sakshi Malik helped make wrestling a bigger dream for young athletes across the state. Today, wrestlers from different parts of India also come to Haryana to train.
Because in Haryana, one champion doesn’t just win a medal. Their journey can inspire the next generation to step onto the mat.
