Slogans Raised Against Modi, Adityanath: WFI Chief Brij Bhushan On Fighters Protest

BJP MP and head of the Wrestling Federation of India Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, accused of sexual harassment by seven female wrestlers, said on Friday that slogans are being raised against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Prime Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Yogi Adityanath, at the protest against him.

“This movement is moving from Delhi towards Punjab and Khalistan,” he said, without elaborating. Singh was referring to the sit-in at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar by the country’s top wrestlers, including Vinesh Phogat and Olympic medalists Bajrang Punia and Sakshi. Malik, to demand his arrest.

“In this move, slogans are being raised against PM Modi and Uttar Pradesh PM Adityanath,” he said here.

“Bajrang Punia is speaking for someone else,” added the BJP MP, who arrived in Balrampur on Friday.

Singh is in Balrampur to prepare for a psychic rally to be held in Ayodhya on June 5. He has claimed that 11 lakh psychics will take part in the rally.

On Thursday, he alleged that the Child Sexual Offenses Protection Act was being “misused” on a large scale and under the leadership of psychics, “we will force the government to change it.”
