                  “I have not been insulted. My village elders came and I stood up. What does a normal person do when they meet their elders? Do they keep sitting? If I sat in front of them on the ground, I did nothing wrong,” said Bhaker. 

        
               The CWG winner went on to say that this is wrong reporting and it should be stopped. “Why do journalists go to any extent to create a sensational news? This I believe they do when they can’t get a story. Such type of wrong propaganda should be stopped,” said Bhaker. The ceremony was conducted to honour medal winners at the CWG 2018 from Haryana. In her first Commonwealth Games, 16-year old Manu Bhaker won India's first gold medal in shooting in the women's 10m Air Pistol event.


              Manu’s father Ramkishan Bhaker was also miffed with the entire episode.
         “Such reporting should be banned. We give respect to our elders and this is what my daughter has done too. She was not insulted. Don’t add misery to what she has got for this country. Learn to respect your elders like Manu does. Salute her and don’t point fingers at her or the people who felicitated her.”
