Celebrated Indian wrestlers, including Bajrang Punia, Sakshi Malik, Vinesh Phogat & others have been protesting for the last three days at Jantar Mantar against WFI president.
BJP MP & Wrestling Federation of India chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh has been accused of sexual assault. Some call him a 'reformer' for the sport, others say he only plays politics.
The protesters have not divulged details about the allegations made and said they will tell the whole story to PM Narendra Modi or Home minister Amit Shah only.
