Amid the heated debate on the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) elections with wrestler Sakshi Malik announcing retirement and Tokyo Olympics bronze medalist Bajrang Punia returned his Padma Shri, Bharatiya Janata Party MP, Ramesh Bidhuri has said that the athletes should have the mentality of athletes, they should not become the tools of someone.
"They have made the country proud, they're talented athletes. Athletes should have the mentality of athletes; they should not become the tools of someone. Last time, politicians of Haryana brought them (athletes) in front for their political benefits and to spoil the careers of these athletes. Whoever has been elected as WFI chief, their (athletes) job is to practice," Ramesh Bidhuri told ANI.
