Vinesh Phogat said 3 things

1. In training camps and tournaments, Brijbhushan used every possible means to touch young female wrestlers when he found them alone. This used to happen again and again.

2. Brijbhushan is a strong man. They are roaming everywhere and we are being forced to sit at home.

3. No one was listening to us. We were forced to hold a public protest so that the country would know how top wrestlers are treated.
