Boxing News: Panghal cries foul, says coach deserves Dronacharya award

Star India pugilist Amit Panghal, who recently bagged the gold medal at the Asian Boxing Championship, has expressed disappointment after his coach Anil Kumar was not recommended for the prestigious Dronacharya award saying that the decision is very very unfair. Boxing Federation of India had recommended elite Indian coaches Sandhya Gurung and Shiv Singh for this year's Dronacharya Award besides sending the names of Panghal and Gaurav Bidhuri for the prestigious Arjuna Award. Sandhya Gurung has been attached with the women's elite team for nearly a decade. Shiv Singh has coached for the past three decades and has lent his expertise to both men's and women's teams.
