The Union Territory Sports Department, Chandigarh, solicited the organizers of the State Badminton Ranking Championship, the recently-concluded tournament, to pay INR 31,000 for using the facilities during the three-day event, according to The Tribune.

 

Even after allowing the tournament as their registered club, the organisers have charged INR 500 from each player to participate just for one event. Interestingly, the Department haven’t charged a single penny from the organisers to conduct the championship.

 

“The department has asked the organisers to submit a sum of Rs 31,000,” said a source.

 

Capt. Karnail Singh, Sports Director, said, “We have issued a notice to the organiser concerned for paying us the charges for our stadium. Anyway, we haven’t received any complaint from the parents of the participants for charging the fees. That is their internal issue.” 

 

Absurdly, some of the shuttlers were asked to pay INR 1000 for participating in two contests, Singles and Doubles.
