On the walkout of the opposition, the Rajya Sabha Chairman said- we are also in pain…

The opposition walked out of the Rajya Sabha on the issue of Vinesh Phogat being disqualified from the Paris Olympics. Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar said, “They (the opposition) think that they are the only ones who are heartbroken. The whole country is in pain because of the girl (Vinesh). Everyone is talking about this situation but to cash in on it, to politicise it is the biggest insult to that girl. That girl still has a long way to go.”

‘If we have majority, we would send Vinesh to Rajya Sabha’

Former Haryana CM Bhupinder Singh Hooda has demanded an inquiry into the disqualification of Vinesh Phogat. He said, “What was the reason for disqualifying Vinesh Phogat, it should be investigated. Today (in Haryana) a Rajya Sabha seat is vacant. If I had the majority, I would have sent her to the Rajya Sabha.”
