Everything Was Planned So That I Cannot Take Any Action, Alleges Yogesh Kathuniya Over Khel Ratna Snub
Major Dhyanchand Khel Ratna Award: Reflecting on his decision to move the court over his exclusion from the list of Khel Ratna Awardees for 2024, two-time Paralympic silver medallist Yogesh Kathuniya has claimed that the National Sports Awards list was released on January 2, deliberately coinciding with the week when the courts were closed, alleging that this timing was planned to prevent him from taking any action.
Paris Paralympics 2024 silver medallist Kathuniya, who was earlier conferred the Arjuna Award for winning a silver medal in the men’s discus throw F56 event at the 2020 Summer Paralympics in Tokyo, had approached the Delhi High Court challenging his non-inclusion in the list of awardees of the Major Dhyanchand Khel Ratna Award for 2024.
The Delhi High Court, on Wednesday, directed the Central Government's selection committee to reassess the candidature of Paralympic discus thrower for the prestigious Khel Ratna Award.
