Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh Says Wrestlers' Allegations Brought Him Recognition
Former Wrestling Federation of India president and BJP leader Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh stated that allegations by women wrestlers from Haryana brought him nationwide recognition, making him a 'hero' and 'immortal' in public perception. Speaking at a function in Mahendragarh, he referenced the Ramayana to illustrate his point and claimed some accusers, once honored, now face financial struggles. A Delhi court recently acquitted him in the sexual harassment case, though the wrestlers plan to challenge the verdict. He also highlighted hardships in his personal life and tenure.
