Olympic champion Neeraj Chopra on Sunday reacted after India’s top wrestlers Bajrang Punia, Vinesh Phogat and Sakshi Malik were detained by the Delhi Police and their protest site cleared. https://t.co/M2gzso4qjX — Neeraj Chopra May 28, 2023 Speaking on the incident, Indian Football captain Sunil Chhetri tweeted, “Why does it have to come down to our wrestlers being dragged around without any consideration? With Section 144 in place in New Delhi to prevent disruptions to the Parliament inauguration, Delhi Police tried to stop the wrestlers, whose march only made it until the end of Jantar Mantar Road. Ironically, the wrestlers were detained in front of the Ashoka Road residence of Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, the five-time Member of Parliament against whom allegations of sexual harrassment had originally been made.
