New Delhi: Farmers on Thursday will hold a ‘mahapanchayat’ to discuss the issue of the wrestlers protesting against former Wrestling Federation of India chief Brij Bhushan.
According to the Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU), a grand meeting of all the khaps will be held in Uttar Pradesh’s Muzaffarnagar to discuss the wrestlers’ protest, who have levelled sexual harassment charges against the embattled WFI chief.
BKU leader Naresh Tikait said that several representatives of different khaps and their heads from Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab Rajasthan, and Delhi will be participating in the mahapanchayat. Tikait played a key role in persuading some of India’s best wrestlers to not immerse their medals in Ganga on Tuesday.
