Wrestler Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia have joined the Congress, while Brijbhushan Sharan Singh questioned Phogat and termed the allegations of sexual harassment as baseless. Meanwhile, Punia has attacked Brijbhushan in the whole matter and said, ‘Brigbhushan’s mentality towards the country has been revealed. This was not the medal of Vinesh, but the medal of 140 crore Indians. Those who celebrate Vinesh’s disqualification, are they patriots? Earlier, Poonia had said, ‘We are fighting for the country from childhood, the rapists of girls are teaching us patriotism. We never said which wrestler was molested. He has committed the crime in the name of Vinesh. If you had the guts to slap girls, you would have to be slapped everyday. Brijbhushan is a history sheeter from theft to treason. Poonia said, ‘BJP is supporting Brijbhushan. I am not contesting the elections, we had decided that one of us would contest the elections. Now there is no hope from Prime Minister Modi. Agencies were used against me, I was banned on dope charges. Vinesh has decided to join the Congress after getting out of the Olympics. Congress has stood by us in times of trouble. Along with this, other opposition parties including Aam Aadmi Party have been with us.’
