With the Tokyo Paralympics scheduled to be held about a year from now, athletes should be in the zone, preparing for the marquee event. The government has identified the athletes that are capable of winning medals, and they have been put under TOP scheme. Sukant Kadam, world No.5 para badminton player, is preparing for the Games, but his Tokyo preparations have been taken a hit by the fact that he is not got his salary for the last nine months as a Taluka Sports Officer, working in Maharashtra's Sangli district.
