Khap Panchayat

Wrestler Vinesh Phogat, who was recently awarded a gold medal by a khap panchayat, was on Saturday seen at farmers' protest at Shambhu border.

Furthermore, the Khap leaders demanded that Vinesh Phogat be entitled to all benefits of a silver medal winner by the state as well as central government. Moreover, Sangwan said that they will honour Vinesh Phogat with a gold medal and that she should be honoured by the Central government with Bharat Ratna.

Khap and Kisan leaders cancelled protest scheduled for June 9 as they were angry over meeting between HM Shah and protesting wrestlers.
