Digital Desk: Sakshi Malik disputed allegations that she had withdrawn from the wrestlers' protest on Monday. It was previously claimed that she had returned to her employment at Northern Railway.

Correction: Sakshi has already stated that she had withdrawn from the wrestlers' protest. Sakshi Malik stated in a tweet that she has not left the protest and has returned to her government work. The clarification has been incorporated into the story.

A meeting was held late on Saturday at the residence of Home Minister Amit Shah and protesting wrestlers in Delhi, which lasted until late that night, as the wrestlers raised their demand for the arrest of Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief Brij Bhushan.

Satyawrat Kadian, the husband of top wrestler Sakshi Malik, claimed Saturday's meeting with Home Minister Amit Shah was inconclusive since the wrestlers "did not get the reaction they wanted from the Home Minister."

The discussion with the home minister came only days after the protesting wrestlers attempted to immerse their medals in the Ganga in Haridwar, but were prevented by farmers' activist Naresh Tikait. Their release was followed by a demand to the government that BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh be arrested before June 9.

Wrestlers have been protesting Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, saying that he sexually abused female wrestlers, including a juvenile. Brij Bhushan has so far faced two FIRs, and he has been charged under the Pocso Act.
