Haryana MLA Abhay Singh Chautala today responded to controversial BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh's "dabdaba" remark soon after the Centre suspended the activities of Wrestling Federation of India (WFI). जब हरियाणे आले खूँटा डाल देते हैं तो अच्छे अच्छे 'दबदबे' उखड़ जाते हैं।#WrestlingFederation
"Jab Hariyane wale khunta dal dete hain to acche acche dabdabe ud jate hain (When people from Haryana intervene, dominance of many are blown away)," the INLD leader said, implying that Olympic bronze medallist Sakshee Malikkh's post on a recent move in WFI had prompted the Centre's intervention.
Controversial BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, who had to step aside as WFI chief following sexual harassment allegations, had welcomed the election of his close aide Sanjay Singh to the wrestling body's top post. The six-time BJP MP had said his "dabdaba (dominance)" will continue, indicating his stranglehold on the federation.
