Former Congress chief and senior leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday slammed the Centre over the detention of protesting wrestlers by the police saying that with the "coronation" over, the "arrogant king is crushing the voice of the people" on the streets.

The general secretary of the party, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra also lashed out at the government, saying that the "arrogance" of the BJP government has increased so much that it is "mercilessly trampling" upon the voices of our women sportspersons under its boots.
