The aggrieved wrestlers on Friday formed two committees to aid them on the future course of action in their fight against outgoing Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief Brijbhushan Sharan Singh. They started the day contemplating their next move after the Supreme Court closed proceedings on their plea even as Sports Minister Anurag Thakur requested them to have faith in the system, saying the investigation will make everything crystal clear.

"Vinesh is discussing it with the legal team. We will inform tomorrow. Today we made two committee -- one is a 31-member committee and the second is a nine-member one. Khap panchayat, farmers and women organisations are there in 31 member committee. The nine-member committee will decide on the wrestling part. I request the sports minister to come and stand on the side of truth. We will restart our fight, maybe by going to the high court. This fight is not restricted to three wrestlers," said Bajrang Punia.
