TTFI to issue show cause to Manika Batra

Though Manika’s coach Sanmay Paranjape was given access for training sessions in Tokyo, he did not have the accreditation to enter the field of play and a request to upgrade his access card was denied

Table Tennis Federation of India (TTFI) on Wednesday decided to issue a show cause notice to star paddler Manika Batra for her refusal to take national coach Soumyadeep Roy’s help at the Olympics.

Though Manika’s coach Sanmay Paranjape was given access for training sessions in Tokyo, he did not have the accreditation to enter the field of play and a request to upgrade his access card was denied.

“We will issue the notice tomorrow and Manika will have 10 days to respond and based on that we will decide what action to be taken further,” TTFI secretary general Arun Banerjee told PTI after the Executive Board meeting.
