"Prakash Sir Was Strict, Next Time...": PM Narendra Modi To Lakshya Sen At Olympic Meet
Prime Minister Narendra Modi met and felicitated India's Paris Olympics athletes on Independence Day at his residence on Thursday. During the meet, PM Modi interacted with several athletes, including star shuttler Lakshya Sen. Lakshya, who made his Olympics debut in Paris, lost the bronze medal match to Malaysia's Lee Zii Jia in three games. After Lakshya failed to win a medal, Prakash Padukone, head coach of Indian badminton contingent, was critical of the shuttlers performance at the Paris Olympics, saying that they need to step up and take the responsibility.
