The Delhi Police got into an ugly scuffle with the protesting wrestlers at Jantar Mantar following which Bajrang Punia exhorted the farmers and the general public to reach Jantar Mantar in their support.

"I request everyone to reach Delhi by morning. This is the time. If not now, then when. This is question of dignity of our daughters. People like Brij Bhushan (WFI President) are roaming free despite being a criminal and all this is happening to us," Bajrang said.

Asked to give more details, Bajrang said, "CCTV cameras must be here. Foortage will make it clear." Asked specifically if AAP leader Somnath Bharti had brought the folding beds, as being claimed by the Delhi Police, Bajrang said,"CCTV footagecan show he was not there when it happened. We had ordered the beds, we were bringing the beds inside." 

India's top wrestlers accused the Delhi police of manhalding and abusing them after the police officials refused the wrestlers to bring beds to the protest site.
