Coimbatore: Vanathi Srinivasan, the Member of Legislative Assembly (MLA) for Coimbatore South constituency, recently visited Paris, France, where she met with para-badminton athletes from Tamil Nadu who had won medals in recent competitions.

In a Facebook post on Sunday, Vanathi Srinivasan shared her experience of meeting the talented athletes. She wrote, "Yesterday (Sept. 2), I had the joy of taking a memorable photograph with Tamil Nadu's female para-badminton athletes Thulasi Mathi Murugesan, Manisha, and Nithyasri, who won silver and bronze medals in the para-badminton competitions held in Paris, France. The photo was taken in front of the iconic Eiffel Tower."
