Ace Badminton player PV Sindhu is the first Indian woman athlete to grab an Olympic silver in the Games when she lost a close final clash against World No.1 Carolina Marin of Spain. Soon after her feat, the Telangana Government felicitated her with Rs 5 crore cash and announced she will be allotted a residential plot in the State capital.
The state Government on Monday issued an order allotting 1,000 square yards of land located in Shaikpet village of Hyderabad district. The land cost is said to be expensive.
“The Government (of Telangana), after careful examination, hereby accepts the proposal of the District Collector, Hyderabad that two adjacent plots in Shaikpet village can be combined to carve out a 1,000 square yards plot to allot the same to Miss P V Sindhu, badminton player, for having won a silver medal in Rio Olympics, as a part of Government incentive,” the order said.
Right now, PV Sindhu is representing Chennai Smashers in Premier Badminton League.
