Security measures have been heightened at Delhi’s borders, including Singhu, Tikri, and Ghazipur, in anticipation of a nationwide demonstration call by the Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM) in support of the country’s top wrestlers. The SKM is protesting against the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief, Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, and has announced plans for demonstrations and effigy burning of the WFI chief on June 5th. Additional police personnel have been deployed, and extra checkpoints have been set up to prevent any undesirable occurrences. Vehicles entering Delhi from neighbouring states are being thoroughly inspected at the borders. The SKM has condemned the brutal repression of the wrestler’s protest on May 28th and has demanded the withdrawal of the FIR against protestors and the arrest of Brij Bhushan. The SKM also criticized the Modi Government’s action against the wrestlers protesting against sexual harassment, terming it anti-woman and anti-people. The crackdown against the protest infringes on citizens’ right to protest, which has been repeatedly upheld by the Supreme Court, the SKM added.
