Wrestler Sikandar Sheikh has won the prestigious title of 'Rustom-e-Hind 2024' in the tournament held in Punjab. He became the fourth player from Maharashtra to win the title.

PBG congratulated Sheikh on the victory. Shaikh won the Maharashtra Kesari title in 2023, becoming the 66th winner of the prestigious title.

Pune-based PBG decided to support his career in wrestling. A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between Sheikh and PBG in this regard.

With the support of PBG, Sheikh has been winning various wrestling tournaments and the 'Rustom-e-Hind' title is the newest of them.

Rustom-e-Hind 2024 was held at Jandla in Rupnagar (Nangal) district. It was attended by many well-known muggles, with Sheikh emerging as the winner.

The tournament has been dominated by North Indian wrestlers and only three wrestlers from Maharashtra – Harishchandra Birajdar, Amol Buchde and Asab Ahmed – had won the title earlier.

Shaikh is now the fourth wrestler from the state to win the prestigious event. Sheikh's match with Roshan Kiralgarh and Bagga Kohli was exciting and spectacular. The award consists of a mace, tractor and cash prize.
