Protesting wrestlers urge Amit Shah to take action against "attack" by Delhi Police personnel 

In a May 4 letter to Amit Shah, ace grapplers Bajrang Punia, Sakshee Mallikh and Vinesh Phogat alleged that the Delhi Police personnel "attacked" protestors on May 3 late evening and said that "insulting" those who represent the country amounts to "tarnishing the nation's goodwill".

The Delhi Police today (May 4) morning made a heavy deployment of security personnel at Jantar Mantar where a scuffle broke out between the protesting wrestlers and some police personnel, leading to head injuries to a couple of protesters. Multiple layers of barricades have been put up around the protest site and no one is being allowed in. It comes after wrestlers called for farmers and their leaders to assemble at the protest site on Thursday. Police are also checking vehicles at city border points to stop a large gathering at Jantar Mantar. A scuffle had allegedly broken out between the protesting wrestlers and some police personnel at the Jantar Mantar, leading to head injuries to a couple of protesters. The wrestlers have alleged that they were manhandled by the police personnel. According to protestors, two wrestlers Rahul Yadav and Dushyant Phogat were also injured. Phogat has received head injuries. The wrestlers have been staging a sit-in at Jantar Mantar since April 23. They have levelled allegations of sexual harassment against Wrestling Federation of India chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, who is also a Bharatiya Janata Party MP from Uttar Pradesh.
