Wrestlers Protest News | ‘No Protest Till June 15,’ Say Wrestlers After Meeting With Anurag Thakur
Two meetings in four days – one by union home minister Amit Shah and a “follow-up” by sports minister Anurag Thakur – and the promise of a chargesheet rather than immediate arrest: this is how the government brought protesting wrestlers on board for a “compromise” at the moment.
Government sources told News18 that it was impressed upon the wrestlers that WFI chief Brij Bhushan Singh’s arrest was a call to be made by investigators and not the government, and the “priority” instead was the finishing the probe.
The wrestlers have been adamant on the precondition that Singh be arrested for them to call off their protest. On Wednesday, however, they agreed to the government’s option and were not persistent on the arrest demand. The government instead promised that a chargesheet will be filed by June 15 and, subsequently, the courts will take a view on it.
