New Delhi: Olympic bronze medalist Sakshi Malik has given a statement on Vinesh joining Congress. Sakshi also stated politics and Brij Bhushan. Sakshi said, 'My fight against Brij Bhushan is going on, the matter is going on in the court. My stand is still the same. I have no greed for anything. Joining Congress is Vinesh's personal decision.'

BJP leaders themselves had permitted the protest: Sakshi

Sakshi said, 'BJP leaders themselves had given permission for the protest and we have proof, so where is the lie in it? It is absolutely wrong to say that the protest was started because they wanted to join the Congress. I am happy that I am working for railways, and sports, I have no greed for any post, and neither do I have any greed for politics.'

It is worth noting that wrestler Sakshi Malik has said many big things in her recently released book 'Witness'. In this book, she has also written about the struggles of her career and the movement of wrestlers. Sakshi Malik has alleged that people close to Bajrang Punia and Vinesh Phogat started feeling greed in her mind. Now Bajrang Punia and Vinesh Phogat have also responded to this statement of Sakshi Malik. 

Sakshi Malik has said in her book that people close to Bajrang and Vinesh started putting greed in their minds when their protests started to crack. Sakshi further said that last year Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia's decision to take exemption from the Asian Games trials affected the image of their protest against Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh as it made the campaign look selfish. Due to this many supporters started thinking that we were protesting for our own selfishness. However, Sakshi did not reveal the names of those who influenced Bajrang and Vinesh.
