Bhagat complains against India coach Khanna over deleted social media post

Asian Para Games medallists have written to sports authorities seeking an inquiry into a deleted social media post by national para badminton coach Gaurav Khanna. In an email sent October 27, athletes addressed the Sports Authority of India and the Badminton Association of India regarding Khanna's predictions made before the finals at the continental event in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan.

On October 22, Khanna reportedly forecast India would secure 16 medals, accurately naming gold medal winners Nitesh Kumar and Naveen Sivakumar. India ultimately claimed three golds, five silvers, and eight bronzes, with the medallists arguing the coach's public predictions harmed athlete morale and placed undue pressure on competitors.
