The #MeToo storm was kicked off in Bollywood when actress Tanushree Dutta revealed an instance of sexual abuse by Nana Patekar years ago. Recently, writer-cum-producer Vinta Nanda also spoke about being the victim of sexual misconduct by Alok Nath.
The popular journalist-turned-politician MJ Akbar was also accused by many journalists of alleged misconduct and harassment.
“I appreciate that people have come forward and spoken about it. I respect it,” the shuttler said, on the sidelines of an event by telecom company Vodafone, where they launched a service named, “Sakhi” for women.
When asked if she knew about such cases of sexual harassment in sports, the 23-year old added,” I don’t know about seniors and coaches. As far as I am concerned, I have been in sports circuit for years and it has been good and fine with me.”
Just a day ago, Sindhu’s colleague Jwala Gutta spoke about getting mentally harassment by a coach but didn’t reveal any names.
