The Badminton World Federation (BWF) has announced that India’s number one ranked para men’s badminton player Pramod Bhagat has been nominated for the Male Para-Badminton Player of the Year award. Along with Pramod Bahgat, BWF has also proposed the name of young men's doubles pair of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty for the 'Most Improved Player of the Year' award. However, India’s leading women shuttler PV Sindhu has failed to find any nominations to her name even after winning the BWF World Championship.
