NEW DELHI: Olympic medallist Sakshi Malik made serious allegations on Thursday, stating that the government's decision to exempt Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia from Asian Games trials was an attempt to "break the unity of the wrestlers."
Sakshi clarified that she had never requested any exemption from the trials, despite the ad-hoc panel of the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) offering to consider her case on the lines of Vinesh and Bajrang.
