India’s gold medal winner in badminton men’s singles Nitesh Kumar on Wednesday said Pramod Bhagat’s absence from the Paris Paralympics 2024 gave him “extra responsibility” to win the title.
Nitesh, who clinched the gold in men’s singles SLC category, Thulasimathi Murugesan (silver), Suhas Yathiraj (silver), Manisha Ramadass (bronze) and Nithya Sre Sivan (bronze) were on Wednesday felicitated by the minister of youth affairs and sports Mansukh Mandaviya for their feat here at the SAI headquarters.
