The lady coach had alleged Sandeep Singh, a BJP MLA for Pehowa in Kurukshetra, contacted her over Instagram after having seen her at a gym.The coach also claimed that the minister later kept insisting that they meet up.

"He messaged me on Instagram and said my national games certificate is pending and wanted to meet in this regard. Unfortunately, my certificate has been misplaced by my federation and I have been taking it up with the authorities concerned,” she reportedly said.

The woman said she finally agreed to meet the minister but when she went there with some documents, Sandeep Singh indulged in sexual misconduct. The minister has dubbed the allegations as baseless.
