New Delhi: The BJP has advised its leader Brijbhushan Sharan Singh to refrain from making statements against wrestlers Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia. This advice has come at a time when just a few days ago, former WFI chief Brijbhushan had targeted both the wrestlers for joining the Congress. Singh had told the media, 'Vinesh and Bajrang earned fame in wrestling and became famous on the strength of this sport, but after joining the Congress, their name will be erased.' Actually, both the wrestlers have joined the Congress before the Haryana assembly elections. In such a situation, BJP leader Brijbhushan Sharan Singh is firing sharp arrows at both. Now the news is that the top leadership of the BJP has advised Brijbhushan to avoid making statements in this matter.
Vinesh-Bajrang had made serious allegations against Brijbhushan
Wrestlers Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia, who staged a sit-in against former Wrestling Federation of India president Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh last year, have now entered politics. After joining the Congress, Vinesh will contest from Julana assembly seat in Haryana while Bajrang Punia has been made the president of the All India Kisan Congress. Vinesh and Bajrang were among the wrestlers who staged a sit-in last year accusing Brij Bhushan of sexually exploiting several junior female wrestlers. After this incident, there has been an upheaval in the Indian wrestling world.

He said, 'They contest from any assembly seat in Haryana, even a small BJP worker will defeat them.'
