Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh: Former wrestler and Rio Olympic bronze medallist Sakshi Malik has shrugged off reports of her joining politics just like fellow Olympians Bajrang Punia and Vinesh Phogat and instead said her focus is on making India Number 1 in sports.

On Friday, ex-wrestler Vinesh Phogat, along with Tokyo Olympic bronze medallist pugilist Bajrang Punia, joined the Congress here in the run-up to the Haryana Assembly elections on October 5.

"I would like to inform all my media friends that I am not contesting the elections, nor am I associated with any political party. My entire focus is on making India No.1 in sports. My dream is for India to get at least 50 Olympic medals. The nation has given me a lot and my life is dedicated to the country," Sakshi wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter.
