Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij on Saturday said that the BJP-led central government has initiated action and a three-member committee has been formed to probe the allegations of wrestlers against the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI).
Vij’s reaction came after wrestlers protested at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi against alleged sexual harassment of women wrestlers by the members of the WFI.
While talking to ANI, Vij said, « This is a very serious matter, my party does not spare any wrongdoer, an inquiry has been instituted and strict action will be taken against whoever is found guilty. The government has initiated action and a three-member committee has been formed, they are serious. »
Congress leader Manickam Tagore on Saturday said that it’s high time that Prime Minister took action to protect the women in the country.
Tagore said, « It is unfortunate that the medal winners have to sit at Jantar Mantar. It shows how the government of India particularly the Prime Minister approaches this kind of issue. Modi should get in and set things correctly.
