The Nationals will see competition in a total 18 weight categories - six each in men and women's freestyle and greco roman.

The hosting of the Nationals assumes significance as the federation had to recently call off a selection trial on Oct 6 and 7 here to pick the Indian wrestling team for the World under-23 and World Championships, scheduled later this month.
