After being at the receiving end of flak by players for its consistent lack of recognition and persistent administrative hurdles, the Badminton Association of India has announced that Paris Paralympics 2024 medallists will be rewarded with a total prize purse of INR 50 lakhs.
India won five medals - one gold, two silver, and two bronze - their most in any version of the Paralympic Games, and secured podiums in the women’s events for the first time at the recently concluded event in Paris.
