Wrestlers Protest: ‘Not only Vinesh Phogat but every girl who…,’ grapplers agree for Narco Test

New Delhi: Top grappler Vinesh Phogat on Monday announced that she would undergo the Narco Test and said that every girl who accused Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh of sexual assault would go for it.

“I would like to tell Brij Bhushan that not only Vinesh, all the girls who have given the complaint, are ready to undergo the Narco test. It should be done live so that the entire country knows about his cruelty to the daughters of the country,” said Vinesh Phogat while talking to media.

Meanwhile, Bajrang Punia also agreed for the Narco Test.

Earlier on Sunday, WFI chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh agreed to undergo the Narco Test demanded by the Khap Panchayat over allegations of sexual assault against him.

However, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and Lok Sabha MP Brij Bhushan had put a “condition” that the top wrestlers Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia should also undergo the Narco Test.

The two wrestlers have been leading the agitation at Jantar Mantar in the national capital for over a month now and accused the BJP leader of sexually abusing female athletes and coaches.
