In his letter, Bajrang expressed his inability to retain the 'honour' of the Padma Shri, citing the current plight of female wrestlers in India.

Wrestler Bajrang Punia writes letter to PM Modi, says he's returning his Padma Shri award

Bajrang Punia writes letter to PM Modi after WFI poll results
Punia says he's returning his Padma Shri award
Can&rsquo;t keep &lsquo;honour&rsquo; when women wrestlers are insulted: Punia

<h2>In his letter, Bajrang expressed his inability to retain the 'honour' of the Padma Shri, citing the current plight of female wrestlers in India.</h2>

Olympic Bronze Medallist Bajrang Punia has decided to return his Padma Shri award, the country&rsquo;s fourth highest civilian honour, back to the government.
Bajrang, a key figure in the wrestlers&rsquo; protest against former Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) Chief Brij Bhushan Singh, penned a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi following the election of Sanjay Singh as the new President of the WFI. <a href="https://www.editorji.com/sports-news/others-sports/new-wfi-chief-sanjay-singh-is-he-bjp-mp-brij-bhushan-singh-s-proxy-1703178927797">Sanjay Singh is a close aide of Brij Bhushan</a>.
In his letter, Bajrang expressed his inability to retain the 'honour' of the Padma Shri, considering the current plight of female wrestlers in India.
He shared his thoughts on social media, stating that he cannot hold onto the government's awards, including the Arjuna Award and Khel Ratna, given the unsafe environment for his female counterparts in wrestling.

Bajrang's letter also touched on the feelings of helplessness and uncertainty that engulfed him and his colleagues throughout the night of December 21 after the election results came out.
He mentioned <a href="https://www.editorji.com/sports-news/others-sports/watch-brij-bhushan-reacts-to-aide-s-win-as-a-teary-eyed-sakshi-malik-vows-to-quit-sport-wfi-elections-1703165842807">Brij Bhushan's post-election statement, which implied &lsquo;continued influence and dominance&rsquo; in the sport</a>, despite not directly participating in the election. This situation, according to Bajrang, illustrates the vulnerable position of female wrestlers in the face of such power dynamics.
In conclusion, Bajrang expressed that he cannot feel honoured by the awards while witnessing the ongoing disrespect and mistreatment of women wrestlers.

Speaking at the Times Now summit, actor Kangana Ranaut opened up on her Twitter account being permanently suspended. She said, that she does miss the day to day engagement with people, but added that not having superficial engagements saves a lot of her energy.
Kangana also said, she loves the phrase &ldquo;Kangana is banned&rdquo;. She said, anything which can't be controlled eventually meets the same fate of being 'banned'.
She also spoke about Karan Johar with whom she had a very public feud. Both were Padma award recipients this year. Kangana said, she tried spotting Karan Johar at the ceremony but the organisers ensured their events were at different times. 
Kangana said, that she would have spoken to Karan Johar if she met him at the venue. She added, there can be conflicts, there can be disagreements but that does not mean two people can't co-exist.
