What did Sakshi Malik’s mother claim?

This is why no decision was taken in the Maha Panchayat of Sonepat
Bajrang Punia then reached Mundla panchayat in Sonepat on Sunday and asked that no decision be taken today. He said that soon a big panchayat would be convened bringing all the organizations on one platform. A decision will be taken in this regard in three-four days. Then everyone will be informed about the place and time of Panchayat. Further decision will be taken in this panchayat.
Will action be taken against Brijbhushan Sharan Singh?
Now such signs are appearing. BJP also has two votes. Now there are very few leaders in BJP who sympathize with Brijbhushan Sharan Singh. There is a growing number of people who believe that something should be done about the grievances of the wrestlers. A senior BJP leader said that Brijbhushan should not be portrayed like this in the media. Brijbhushan is not even giving a chance to pacify the matter. He should not try to force a rally in Ayodhya on June 5. It is better to keep calm for a few days. Information and Broadcasting and Sports Minister Anurag Thakur also gave similar hints.
