NEW DELHI: The protesting wrestlers on Wednesday agreed to suspend their agitation till June 15 after the government assured them of filing a chargesheet against outgoing WFI chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh by then and holding the elections to the sports body by end of the month.
Olympic medallists Bajrang Punia and Sakshi Malik met Union Sports minister Anurag Thakur, who invited them for a meeting to break the deadlock, three days after Union Home minister Amit Shah met them and discussed their demands.
After the meeting, which lasted over five hours, Malik and Punia told reporters that they have also been assured that the FIRs lodged against them will be withdrawn.
