Priyanka Panwar and five other athletes tested positive for anabolic steroids in the dope tests conducted on 27 June by NADA at NIS Patiala and consequently banned for a year.
On 16 February 2011, Priyanka Pawar's father Shiv Kumar Pawar alleged that her railways team in charge Anu Singh is sexually harassing her. The railway employee's family filed complaints with the railway and sports ministries accusing Pawar of making false allegations against him view to pressuring the team official to get Priyanka’s younger brother Arun Panwar, who was earlier rejected by Singh, into the Uttar Pradesh juniors 200-metre sprint team.
