New Delhi ∙ The verbal dispute between the police and the wrestlers who are protesting at Jantar Mantar has reached a conflict. The problem was that the police stopped the delivery of beds to the protest site last night. A complaint was raised that a drunken policeman abused and beat up 2 female wrestlers. Two people were injured during the commotion. One person was hospitalized. The video of the incident went viral on social media.
As it had rained during the day, the beds in the Samara panthal were wet. Aam Aadmi Party workers were stopped by the police when they were bringing replacement beds and folding beds. AAP leader Somnath Bharti and 2 followers were taken into police custody. The action was taken because the police broke the barricade and entered the protest site without permission.
The strike at Jantarmantar demanding the arrest of former federation president Brijbhushan Sharansingh, who is facing allegations of sexual exploitation of wrestlers, has passed 11 days.
