Paralympian Rakesh Kumar Debunks J&K Sports Council's Claims, Says He Applied Offline Under S.O.-12
Paralympian Rakesh Kumar: Paralympic medallist Rakesh Kumar has rejected the Jammu and Kashmir Sports Council's assertion that he never applied for appointment under S.O.-12 of 2022, maintaining that he had submitted his application offline and questioning how he could now produce documentary proof.
Responding to the Council's statement denying his allegations of exclusion from the recruitment process, the para archer said he was only seeking what he believed was rightfully due to him and insisted he had not attempted to gain entry through improper means.
The Sports Council had earlier maintained that Rakesh never submitted an application under the recruitment notification and, therefore, was never considered by the scrutiny or selection committees. It also described his allegations as "factually incorrect" and stated that he had sought inclusion only after the provisional selection list had been issued.
