Sources have told NDTV that no charges can be filed against the wrestling body chief yet as no specific complaint has been filed against him.
Sports Minister Anurag Thakur on Friday cautioned Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh against going to media or making any statement in the #MeToo allegations against him as it will complicate matters, NDTV has learnt.
Mr Thakur who met the protesting wrestlers for four hours (10pm-2am) without any headway yesterday, is set to meet the grapplers again today.
"If I speak, there will be a tsunami... I am not here because of someone's help, I have been elected by the people," Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh told reporters in Uttar Pradesh's Gonda earlier in the day.
Sources have told NDTV that no charges can be filed against the wrestling body chief yet as no specific complaint has been filed against him.
