After #WrestlersProtests started again in April, father decided to join the fight. He went to Jantar Mantar. He told the wrestlers there that he would also join the fight for Justice for his daughter.

(Press Conf. by Uncle Amit Pehlwan 30/5/23)
Q: There was press conf. by a man who claimed to be #MinorWrestler's Chacha..
A: Let me tell you he is Tau, not Chacha. He is my older, not younger, brother. What does he know of her age, he doesn't know he's Tau, not Chacha!

The First daughter.
She passed away at the age of 6-7 months from pneumonia while they were visiting Punjab in winter of 2004.

The younger daughter, the #MinorWrestler, was born in Delhi on 22/12/2006.
The father says that all the documents shown by the uncle at the press conf. had already been submitted Delhi Police by him.

The #MinorWrestler was born in Delhi.
ALL the documents - Birth & Death Certificates of the elder deceased daughter and the #MinorWrestler's Birth Certificate, were submitted by me to Delhi Police.
The #MinorWrestler is named after her elder sister.

"I don't know my brother's motives in making these allegations, so I won't comment on them"
"If he was worried that his niece was being coerced to be a part of a conspiracy, he should have contacted me"
"We've had no contact for the past 7-8 yrs"

(Uncle Amit Pehlwan is a known criminal)
"I didn't want to have to say this, but now I will. Go to any Police Station in Rohtak. You will find FIRs against him (Amit Pehlwan)"
"My brother did not contact me to express his concerns b4 the press conf. He has my number"

"I won't comment on what happened at Jantar Mantar on May 28th. My fight is not with Govt, Delhi Police, any Political Party, or any individual."
"As for allegations that wrestlers are doing politics, I say that politics are there to take a stand on issues, for or against."

"Do these kids need Politics? What medals have Vinesh, Sakshi, Bajrang not won? Do they lack for fame...wealth? So somewhere this is a fight for the Truth!"
"Our fight is not with Modiji.. Our fight is for Justice, to right the wrongs. So the wrongs don't happen again in future"

"In Law, Courts, Police..I've full faith in them"
Q: You had to go to Supreme Court..
"Look, it happened but still as per Law"
"As a Citizen you have to trust the Law, Police, Courts. Because that's where you'll get Justice. Justice can be delayed, but can't be denied in the end"

"I want to convey to all Media in the country that Delhi Police already has all those documents. Investigation is going on... Media should not be making claims that the minor in an adult."
"My daughter was approx 16 when this happened. She is still not 17 - a minor"

"..media people have called me. They say we're standing with u. They've told me things. It seems that the media is still the 4th pillar of our country
"Media people know the reality. They see faces everyday and can tell if one is lying or telling truth. I have faith in our media

"This has become people fight. I know the whole country is standing, will continue to stand together, so that Justice can be given soon. Wrestlers can get back to training. Olympic trials are coming"
"I humbly req. Govt to give Justice soon so wrestlers can go back to training"

Q: ...will this scandal effect future of wrestling?
"Sure! Esp. young wrestlers. If Govt acts soon, then young wrestlers will b fine.
Rep: "PM said Beti padhao beti bachao beti khillao. But questions arise when daughters get roughed up at Jantar Mantar, have to beg for Justice."
