Bajrang Punia on Wednesday justified utilizing facilties at a complicated lodge close to Jantar Mantar, saying the ladies who’re a part of the protest want some personal house to fulfill their primary necessities.

“This is also being spread that no one is staying at Jantar Mantar but a lot of media people are staying here even during night. There are women with us and they need private space where they can freshen up and change clothes. They can’t do it on the road,” Bajrang stated of their defence.
“They also need to use washrooms. The ones here (at Jantar Mantar) do not have water, so that’s why we have rooms. (Sitting at protest) does not mean that we take bath on road,” he stated.

Sakshi stated the Delhi police can also be spreading misinformation that wrestlers have left the protest website.
“Some people are saying that we do not sleep here during the night. But anyone can come and check. Media people are always here,” she stated,
Vinesh added,”A few kids from an NGO had come to meet us this morning but Police people told them that we do not stay here and come around noon as we leave the site in the night. Then someone told them that police officers are lying.”
Bajrang added,”It’s the Police that is misleading people.”
