What is the story behind India's 1st CWG 2026 medallist Jhandu Kumar's name?
India's first CWG 2026 medallist, para-powerlifter Jhandu Kumar, contracted polio at five, forcing his parents to spend savings on treatment. He said acquaintances mocked his parents, saying, "Aap ka beta sab jhandu kar diya," and the nickname stuck. He tried adopting 'Avinash Kumar', but government officials laughed at 'Jhandu Kumar' name and he retained it as it made people laugh.
