'Vinesh Phogat Victim Of Conspiracy', Cong Attacks BJP After Wrestler's Olympic Exit
Congress General Secretary Randeep Singh: The disqualification of ace Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat from the Paris Olympics hours before her gold medal match for failing to meet the 50 kg weight criterion took a political turn on Wednesday with the opposition Congress hitting out at the ruling BJP, underlining the past sequence of events, including the wrestlers' protest of which Vinesh was a prominent face.
The Congress said Vinesh did not face defeat on the wrestling mat but got trounced on the mat of conspiracy, saying the wrestler was made a political scapegoat.
"The 140-crore plus people of the country are stunned by what happened with Vinesh Phogat," Congress General Secretary Randeep Singh Surjewala said, adding, "Some people in power were even shying from sending out congratulatory tweets to Vinesh."
