NEW DELHI: A day after the government named a high-level probe panel to look into the allegations of wrestlers against the Wrestling Federation of India and its chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, the protesting grapplers launched a fresh offensive on Tuesday by expressing dismay over the constitution of the oversight committee and claimed it was formed without holding consultations with them.
The newest sign of dissent by the wrestlers has left the sports ministry upset. Sources in the ministry claimed that three names for the panel were suggested by the wrestlers themselves during the first round of discussion with sports minister Anurag Thakur on Thursday night.
