Talking to athletes over phone calls is now PM Modi’s mandatory ritual, it started from Olympics and is now continued in Paralympics too. However, on Tuesday PM Modi went overboard and mistakenly called a deaf athlete and for minutes kept saying ‘Hello Hello’ and later realised the athlete just can’t speak.
Reportedly, now PM Modi has written a text message to the athlete, congratulating him for his feat and apologised for trying to reach him through the phone call.
In another similar incident, a paralympic athlete was fined for not standing up during national anthem only until the authority realised that it’s Paralympic and the athlete is specially who and can’t stand
