According to Amar Ujala, Thakur wanted the Kabaddi Association of Himachal Pradesh to conduct selection trials and decide the 12-man squad for the 69th Men's Senior National Kabaddi Championships 2022.
However, the federation denied his request, which led to him stepping down from the position of the state team skipper. Thakur has also not traveled with the team for the 69th Men's Senior National Kabaddi Championships 2022.
A reserve player has replaced him in the Himachal Pradesh Kabaddi team for the upcoming Nationals.
