Anil Kumble and Robin Uthappa are amongst only a handful of cricketers who’ve expressed their anguish at outstanding Indian wrestlers being “manhandled” by the police in Delhi, India’s nationwide capital.
Tweeting on Tuesday, two days after disturbing photos of Vinesh Phogat, amongst different wrestlers, being dragged away from the positioning of their protest in central Delhi emerged, Kumble stated, “Dismayed to listen to about what transpired on the twenty eighth of Could with our wrestlers being manhandled. Something might be resolved by way of correct dialogue. Hoping for a decision on the earliest.”
A day later, on Wednesday, Uthappa stated he was “saddened” by the developments, and that he was “sure there’s a higher technique to have this addressed in a peaceable method”.
Delhi Police acted in opposition to the wrestlers once they breached the safety obstacles and began to march in direction of the brand new parliament constructing, which was being inaugurated by Narendra Modi, India’s prime minister, on the time. The protesters have been pushed into buses and brought away, and police personnel cleared the protest website – not removed from the parliament constructing not lengthy after.
Aside from Kumble and Uthappa, there was a message from Irfan Pathan, who tweeted “I am so unhappy to see the visuals of our Athletes” on Sunday night time itself. And from Manoj Tiwary, now a Member of the Legislative Meeting in West Bengal, who supplied his help to the wrestlers.
