While media organisations were not informed of this meeting, in a conversation with Amar Ujala, Sakshi Malik's mother Sudesh Malik, claimed that Sakshi, Vinesh, and Bajrang had a meeting with the Union Home Minister on Saturday night. During the meeting, the Home Minister advised all three athletes to stay calm and allow the law to take its course.
