Neeraj Chopra came out in support of the wrestlers on Friday. It is sad to see our athletes on the streets demanding justice,” Chopra said in a tweet on Friday. They have worked hard to represent our great country and make us proud.
Chopra is the second Indian Olympic gold medalist after shooter Abhinav Bindra to come out in support of the wrestlers.
Chopra wrote, “As a nation, we are responsible for protecting the dignity of each individual athlete.
