What Cash Rewards Will Tenzing Sherpa and Kabaddi Players Receive for Winning Medals at the 20th Asian Games?

According to reports, the Council of Ministers has decided to award cash prizes to bronze medal winners at the Asian Games. Under the regulations, individual bronze medalists are entitled to receive NPR 1.3 million, while team event athletes receive NPR 390,000. However, since the rule applies only to those who advance past the qualifying rounds to win medals, Tenzing Sherpa will receive NPR 650,000 and the kabaddi players will be awarded NPR 195,000.
Tenzing’s coach, Kushal Shrestha, will receive NPR 130,000, and team manager Yubaraj Lama will get NPR 65,000. For the kabaddi team, head coach Parvati Rai will be awarded NPR 130,000, while assistant coach Lok Bahadur Bista and manager Sharad Darshanadhari will each receive NPR 65,000.
On 23rd Ashoj in Kathmandu, the Nepalese karate athlete Tenzing Sherpa and members of the women’s kabaddi team—including players, coaches, and managers—who secured bronze medals for Nepal at the 20th Asian Games held in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan, will receive cash rewards under the Sports Development Regulations. The Council of Ministers resolved on Friday to provide cash rewards to bronze medal winners. This decision follows recommendations made by the National Sports Council’s executive committee at a prior meeting.
