Why Dipa wants to return BMW to Sachin?
X
In September this year, Sachin Tendulkar and Hyderabad Badminton Association President V Chamundeswaranath presented BMW cars to PV Sindhu, Sakshi Malik, Dipa Karmakar and Coach Pullela Gopichand for remarkable performance in the Rio Olympics.

However, Olympic gymnast Dipa Karmakar decided to return BMW to Sachin & Chamundeswaranath owing to the maintenance issues. She found it difficult to maintain such a swanky car in a city like Agartala where roads aren't properly maintained and narrow. In fact, There is no BMW service centre in Agartala.

Dipa Karmakar's Family already informed Hyderabad Badminton Association about their concerns. Even the Association accepted the request placed by Olympic Champ.

Actually, Dipa Karmakar's Family appealed HBA to deposit the amount equivalent to BMW in her bank account. They claimed to be having no objection what-so-ever even if the Association decides the final amount.
