The Badminton World Federation has allotted the prestigious BWF World Championship to India for 2026, it was officially announced on Tuesday.
Badminton legend Prakash Padukone has no hesitation in calling four-time World Championship medallist P.V. Sindhu as one of the "greats" among Indian shuttlers even as he hoped that the Hyderabadi will break her silver medal run in major championships.
THE SANSKRIT MEANING of the word ‘Prakash’ translates to ‘bright light’. And it is perhaps fitting that the man who cast such a spectacular glow on Indian badminton, goes by that same name. Recently, the Badminton Association of India presented a long overdue, but much-deserved Lifetime Achievement Award to Prakash Padukone, the racquet wielding hero who laid the founding stones of inspiration in India’s now blossoming badminton legacy.
Prakash Padukone who was the first shuttler to bring the country onto the map of world badminton has been conferred with the Lifetime Achievement Award by BAI.
