PCI expresses disappointment over lack of cash awards for Girisha

Paralympic Committee of India is very happy, after Girisha Hosanagara Nagarajegowda won the silver medal in the Men’s High Jump F42 event for India.

But PCI is also disappointed that no one is coming forward to give any cash awards for this athlete, while the only difference of this medal is that this is for disabled, but the status of Olympics and Paralympics is equal.

However, Paralympic Committee of India announced Rs. 10 Lakh Cash Award to Girisha on his success.

Mr. Sultan Ahmed, President PCI give him best wishes and appealed to corporates to come forward to give Girisha more awards.
