Malika Handa, who had won a gold and two silver medals at the World Deaf Chess Championships slammed Punjab government after the state Sports Minister Pargat Singh refused to give her a job and cash reward stating that their government does not have any such policy for deaf sports.
According to Handa, the former Punjab sports minister had announced a cash award for her. She also added that her five years got wasted.
“I am only asking why it was announced. I wasted 5 years on congress govt. They fooled me.. not care deaf person sports. District Congress all told me that supports , promised me after 5 years that happen is nothing now. Why why Punjab govt doing this ?” she added.
