Just Like Olympics, Cricket Should Be Included In Paralympics As Well, Says DCCI General Secretary
Los Angeles Olympic Games: Ravi Chauhan, the General Secretary of the Differently-abled Cricket Council of India (DCCI), said he has requested for the inclusion of para-cricket in 2028 Los Angeles Paralympics following his meeting with Andrew Parsons, the President of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC).
“In the world of cricket, there is great happiness that cricket has been included in Los Angeles Olympics in 2028. There can't be a bigger thing than this. Our reason for going to Paris was the same because we have been working for Paralympic sports for a long time.”
“So our aim was to go there and talk to the IPC President that the way cricket has been included in LA Olympics, then para-cricket should be included in Paralympics as well. So we have put our request in front of the IPC President, and he has also shown confidence that we will work on this soon because through cricket, other sports can move forward,” said Chauhan to IANS.
