Former Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) president and BJP leader Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh received a grand welcome upon his return to his home district Gonda on Thursday, marking his first visit since being acquitted in a sexual harassment case filed by wrestlers. Singh arrived at Ayodhya’s international airport in a chartered aircraft, where a large crowd welcomed him with drums, music and slogans.
The procession continued towards Gonda, with thousands lining the route, and flower petals were showered on the convoy using excavators. Hundreds of vehicles joined the procession, and supporters raised the slogan “Sher Aaya” (the lion has arrived). The event included a rally titled “Satyamev Jayate,” prayers at various temples, and a community feast.
