Fresh protest erupts, Wrestlers target Bajrang, Vinesh, Sakshi

New Delhi: Indian wrestling took a new turn on Wednesday when hundreds of junior wrestlers assembled at Jantar Mantar to protest against the loss of one year blaming Bajrang Punia, Sakshi Malik, and Vinesh Phogat.

The wrestlers arrived in buses from different parts of Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, and Delhi.

Close to 300 of them came from Arya Samaj Akhara in Chhaprauli, Baghpat while many others came from the Virender Wrestling Academy in Narela. Many are still packed in buses and they plan to deboard and join their colleagues when more wrestlers arrive at the landmark protest site.
