“By arresting people how we can call us “mother of democracy.” India’s daughters are in pain.”

Earlier, Tokyo Olympics gold medallist and three-time former world champion Risako Kawai has come out in support of the top Indian wrestlers.

The wrestlers protesting at the Jantar Mantar, about two kilometres from Parliament, said that they will go ahead with their “Mahila Mahapanchayat” near the new building at any cost.

Meanwhile, Delhi Police has made it cleared that the protesting wrestlers won’t be allowed near the new Parliament building, which is set to be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

“We respect our athletes but we will not let there be any disturbance in the inauguration (of new Parliament building),” Dependra Pathak, Special CP, Law & Order, Delhi Police told PTI.
