The Paralympic Committee of India (PCI) has suspended its president Rajesh Tomar. He has been charged with gross mismanagement of the recent 15th National Para-Athletics championship for differently abled sports persons. The decision was taken at a meeting of the PCI's executive committee in Bengaluru. It has been alleged that the participants were accommodated in unfurnished flats with unhygienic facilities. The Paralympic Committee of India has constituted a three-member inquiry committee to investigate the matter. Mr Tomar denied the charges and stated that the organisational committee headed by Mr Satyanarayan, the Director of Competition, was fully responsible for the event along with the Uttar Pradesh Paralympic Association.
