Thank you Hon Narendra Modi ji and Vijay Goel ji!” Fadnavis said in another tweet.

In a sensational turn of events, Narsingh was today cleared to compete in the Rio Olympics after being exonerated of doping charges by the National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA), which ruled that the wrestler was a victim of “sabotage” and deserved the benefit of doubt.
