Wrestling Federation of India chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh is facing allegations of sexual harassment from female wrestlers, who, along with their male counterparts have been protesting at New Delhi's Jantar Mantar for over a month.
Punia's statement came after Brij Bhushan, a BJP MP, said that he was ready to take the polygraph test, but the same must be conducted on wrestlers Punia and Vinesh Phogat.
Bajrang Punia, while reacting to Brij Bhushan's statement, said, "We had already said that the players are ready for the narco test. The test should be done under the supervision of the Supreme Court and the whole country should be able to see it live so that they know what questions are being posed to the WFI chief and wrestlers who complained against him."
Commonwealth medallist Vinesh Phogat, too, said, "I would like to tell Brij Bhushan that not only Vinesh, but all the girls who have filed the complaint, are ready to undergo the narco test. It should be done live so that the country knows about the cruelty to the country's daughters."
Sakshi Malik, meanwhile, urged people to support their candle march at the India Gate on Tuesday from 5:00 PM.
