Sakshi Malik's sensational revelation

Sakshi Malik has revealed that her tuition teacher exploited her when she was young. She could not tell her family about the molestation by her childhood tuition teacher because she felt that it was her fault. She wrote, 'I couldn't tell my family about it because I felt it was my fault. During my school days, the tuition teacher used to harass me. He would call me to his house at untimely hours to take classes and would sometimes try to touch me. I was scared to go for tuition classes but I could not tell my mother.

Accusations against Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia

Sakshi Malik said that Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia's decision to opt out of the Asian Games trials last year affected the image of her protest against Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh as it made the campaign look selfish. Sakshi was one of the three main wrestlers of this protest. He told in his book that when people close to Bajrang and Vinesh started filling their minds with greed, cracks started appearing in their protests. All three had accused former Indian Wrestling Federation chief Sharan Singh of sexually harassing female wrestlers during his tenure and the case is going on in a Delhi court.
