Narsingh Pancham Yadav (born 6 August 1989) is an Indian wrestler. At the 2010 Commonwealth Games, he won the gold medal in the men's freestyle 74 kg category.[2]
He was banned for 4 years and barred from the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro by the Court of Arbitration for Sport after the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) appealed against the decision of the National Anti-Doping Agency to allow him to compete even after he failed a doping test by testing positive for anabolic steroids. The National Anti-Doping Agency claimed Yadav's sample had been sabotaged by a rival.[3][4]
He is a triple Maharashtra Kesari, a title in Indian kushti. He is the first wrestler to win the title 3 times in a row for 2011, 2012 and 2013. He was awarded the Arjuna Award in 2012 for his contribution to wrestling.
