The United World Wrestling (UWW), a world wrestling body, has condemned the treatment meted out to India's top wrestlers during their protest in Jantar Mantar, stating it “firmly condemns the treatment and detention of the wrestlers.”

The wrestlers have been protesting at Jantar Mantar since April 23 to demand the arrest of Wrestling Federation of India president and BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, who has been accused of sexual harassment by seven female wrestlers, including a minor.
