Congress on PM Narendra Modi for wrestler Vinesh Phogat: After Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat was declared unfit for the Olympics even before the gold medal, the Congress attacked the Center and asked, 'When Prime Minister Narendra Modi can stop Ukraine from going to war with Russia, why can't Vinesh be brought to justice?'
If the Russia-Ukraine war can be stopped, why can't Vinesh be brought to justice?
Today (August 7), the Congress party said, 'Indian wrestler Vinesh has become a victim of a conspiracy. Apart from this, the Congress targeted the central government and asked that when Prime Minister Narendra Modi can stop the Russia-Ukraine war, then why can't Vinesh be brought to justice? Let us tell you that Vinesh created history yesterday (August 6) by becoming the first Indian female wrestler to reach the gold medal match in her category. Meanwhile, she was sure to get at least a silver medal, but now she has been disqualified due to being 100 grams overweight.
What did Congress General Secretary Randeep Surjewala say ,
Addressing a press conference at the AICC headquarters, Congress general secretary Randeep Surjewala said, 'Phogat has hoisted the country's flag at the Paris Olympics by winning the pre-quarter, quarter-final and semi-final within seven hours. India's daughter has hoisted the Indian tricolour on world wrestling gold medalist Yui Susaki, who has been undefeated in the last 82 matches. Phogat lost not on the wrestling field but due to the politics of conspiracy. Sports was sacrificed to politics.'
Randeep Surjewala targeted BJP leaders
Randeep Surjewala said, 'On Tuesday, every citizen of the country was celebrating as if his own daughter had won. But the ruling party, the Sports Minister, the Prime Minister and BJP National President Vinesh Phogat are avoiding congratulating her. Who are those people who could not digest Vinesh Phogat's victory and who stabbed her in the back? Do our own people have any objection to her medal? The Prime Minister and other ministers encouraged the players on their defeat, but they did not do so when Phogat won three matches in a single day. The Congress leader said, 'When Phogat lost, the Prime Minister and ministers started tweeting sympathy. We do not want sympathy, we want justice. Why are the Wrestling Federation of India and the government silent and why are they not knocking the door of the International Olympic Committee? Why is the Sports Minister here instead of Paris?
Why can't PM Vinesh get justice?
Surjewala asked, 'Why couldn't the Prime Minister, who could stop the Ukraine-Russia war, get justice for Phogat? What are the officials doing to her, because according to the rules, if a player withdraws from the game due to injury, he keeps the medal he won. They would have checked the weight and if the weight was more, they could have advised her to withdraw due to injury to save the medal.' At the same time, Surjewala criticized the statement given by Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya in Parliament and said, “Lakhs were spent on her training.”
