Deepak Punia is an Indian freestyle wrestler and Naib Subedar in the Indian Army. He won a silver medal at the 2019 World Wrestling Championships in the freestyle 86 kg category, where Hassan Yazdani of Iran, a wrestler that Punia idolises, won the final by walkover.[3] Punia's silver medal secured him a place in the 2020 Summer Olympics.[4] He was born in Jhajjar district, Haryana. He faced Yazdani again in the 86 kg final of 2022 Asian Games, but lost 10-0 in a one-sided match.[5]

Punia is the reigning Commonwealth champion in his weight category. He bagged a gold medal at the 2022 Birmingham Commonwealth Games after beating Pakistan's Muhammad Inam by a score of 3-0 in the 86 kg final bout.[3][6][7]
