Olympic medallist Bajrang Punia on Tuesday told NDTV that the central government asked the protesting wrestlers to not reveal the details of their meeting with Home Minister Amit Shah.

Punia, along with the country’s top wrestlers Sakshi Malik, Sangita Phogat and Satyawart Kadian, met Shah on Saturday night. Rubbishing the speculation that they had “setting” at the meeting, Punia said the government “leaked” information regarding their talks.
