Khattar's big 'political' charge on wrestlers' protest as Phogat, Punia meet Rahul Gandhi

Union minister CM Manohar Lal Khattar remarked on wrestlers Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia's association with Congress leaders, implying last year's protest was politically driven. Speculation mounts that Congress might field Phogat for Haryana elections. The athletes had accused BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh of misconduct, allegations denied by WFI.
