Telangana IT and Industry minister KT Rama Rao extended his support to the women Wrestlers who launched a intensive protest against alleged sexual harassment by the Chief of Wrestling Federation.
KTR took to Twitter to express his solidarity with the agitating women Wrestlers.“We celebrate when these Olympic Champions bring glory to the nation.Now, let us stand with them express our solidarity as they fight for justice.“The serious sexual harassment allegations against the chief of Wrestling Federation should be probed impartially and justice delivered, tweeted KTR.
The female wrestlers have been long protesting against their association Chief Brij Bhushan to which the Modi govt has ignored.
Seven female wrestlers have filed a sexual harassment case against federation leader Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh at Central Delhi’s Connaught Place police station.Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the Delhi Police, told a Supreme Court bench comprising Chief Justice DY Chandrachud and Justice P S Narasimha that the FIR would be registered on Friday.
However, the wrestlers continued their agitation and demanded that the BJP MP be removed from all the positions he holds.Vinesh Phogat said it took Delhi Police six days to file an FIR and they don’t trust the probe agency.
“It (Police) might file a loose FIR.We we will see, observe then take a decision (on calling off protest).He should be behind the bars and removed from all the posts he holds, otherwise he will try to influence the investigation,” World Championship medallist Vinesh said.
