While I appreciate Kangana's star power, I wish they had chosen a sports personality as ambassador. Someone like Deepa Malik would have been more appropriate given her Paralympic credentials.

Kangana's controversies might overshadow the event. PCI should have considered this. Our para athletes' achievements should be the focus, not political drama.

As someone who follows para sports closely, I'm just happy about the championships coming to India! Jawaharlal Stadium will witness history. Kangana's involvement will at least bring media coverage.

Kangana has the guts to speak her mind and stand for what she believes. If she can use that energy to promote our para athletes, why not? Better than some diplomatic celebrity who won't speak up.

Hope this leads to better infrastructure for para athletes in India. We need more accessible stadiums and training facilities beyond just big events. Kangana should push for this too!
