The wrestler shared that she hasn’t backed out of the protest nor will anyone back off. She clarified that along with the protest she is fulfilling her duties in the railways and will continue to fight for justice.
“This news is completely wrong. In the fight for justice, none of us has backed down, nor will we. Along with Satyagraha, I am fulfilling my responsibility in Railways. Our fight continues till justice is served. Please don't spread any wrong news,” Malik tweeted sharing a screenshot of a news report from a news channel.
Another wrestlers and Olympic bronze medallist Bajrang Punia, who was also rumoured to have backed out of the protest also took to Twitter to clarify his stance. In his tweet, Punia said this news is just a rumour and has been spread just to harm on protesting wrestlers.
