Wrestlers Protest

Wrestlers Protest: On Tuesday, wrestlers travelled to Haridwar to throw their medals into the Ganga as a form of protest against the Union government. Later, the idea was scrapped as farmer leaders requested five days to find a solution. Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, the head of the WFI, responded by asking, "What can we do if the players want to immerse their medals?"

Medals Handed Over to Tikait

Brij Bhushan Singh, who is accused of sexual harassment, stated in an interview with India Today that, "The wrestlers went to immerse their medals in Ganga ji. But instead of Ganga ji, they gave their medal to Tikait. That is their stand. What can we do?” “Let them investigate and see what happens in the future. Nothing is now in our hands. Everything has been left to the Delhi Police,” he added.

He emphasised, "I will be arrested if it turns out that I was in the wrong. That is not a problem for me."
