We have seen everything, no one is standing with us. If no one is standing with the player then what will the player do." He further said, "We will not be able to wrestle anymore. We are broken from inside. For whom will we play the game now? We have announced our retirement from wrestling after a lot of thought. Our journey ended here. Now we will not be able to go further, it is very difficult. We thought we would bring medals for the country. Vinesh tried a lot, but we could not bring medals. I am very sad about this. We would like to apologize to everyone, we wanted to do it for the country, but could not do it."
