Paralympians Palak Kohli and Manoj Sarkar were among the title winners as the Indian Para Badminton team returned a rich haul of medals at the Uganda Para Badminton International 2021 in Kampala.
The Indian contingent finished with a total of 47 Medals including 16 gold, 14 silver and 17 bronze medals. Kohli, Abu Hubaida, Ammu Mohan were double gold medallists plus a silver each while Manasi Joshi, who recently received confirmation that her category will be present in the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games, also won two gold medals to go with a bronze.
The result comes on the back of a good outing for the Indian contingent at Tokyo Paralympics where badminton made its debut.
