NEW DELHI: Olympic bronze medallist Bajrang Punia, one of the prominent faces leading the wrestlers' protest in Delhi, on Sunday accused the media of supporting the Wrestling Federation of India chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh more than the players. While celebrated wrestler Vinesh Phogat appealed to the media not to give Brij Bhushan a platform to speak.
"The media is supporting Brij Bhushan more than the players. You see his criminal records. Does any player, sitting here, or players from other sports, have a criminal record?" Bajrang said during a media interaction.
