Accused of sexual harassment by India`s top wrestlers, under-fire national federation chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh said on Monday that all activity in the sport had come to a standstill in the last four months due to protests by the country`s top wrestlers. He further added that he is ready to be `hanged` but wrestling activity, including national championships and camps, should not stop as it would be detrimental to the cadet and junior wrestlers.
"All wrestling activity has come to a standstill in the last four months. I say hang me, but don`t stop wrestling activity; don`t play with the future of children. Allow the cadet nationals to take place, whosoever organises it... be it Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Tripura, but don`t stop the (wrestling) activity," said Brij Bhushan in an interaction with the media.
