No Khel Ratna recommendation for 2025, 17 athletes get Arjuna Awards
In a surprising turn, India's prestigious Khel Ratna award will not have a recipient in 2025, marking this as the third time since its establishment in 1991-92. Meanwhile, the Arjuna Award will honor seventeen exceptional athletes for their achievements, while coaches are set to receive the Dronacharya Awards. Additionally, the Army Paralympic Node will be recognized with the Rashtriya Khel Protsahan Puruskar for its significant contributions to sports.
