Adding to the Media he further addressed "As I already stated, we were battling for our sisters and daughters. I was unable to bring them to justice. I believe I don't deserve this honor as a result.

"I refuse to bring this medal home," Bajrang Punia declared to the press.

The way our female wrestlers have been treated has brought sadness to our entire country. This is regretful. We promised them our all support," Hooda remarked.
Giving more insights from different parties on wrestlers Sakshee Malik and Bajrang Punia, NCP MP Supriya Sule says, "...The Union Sports Minister should meet them and listen to what they have to have."
Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Priyanka Chaturvedi says, "You are saving a man who has serious charges against him. The female wrestlers were promised that any persons associated with Brij Bhushan would not be elected to WFI. What Bajrang Punia had to do was shameful because he did not get justice."
