After a mediocre performance at the Paris Olympics 2024, the entire action and spotlight shifts to the Paris Paralympics 2024, which is slated to begin from 28th August 2024 and will go on till 8th September 2024.
India bagged 6 medals at Paris Olympics 2024 which included 5 bronze medals and 1 silver medal. There was a huge debate and furore over Vinesh Phogat’s silver medal rejection because of her being overweight by 100g but the Court of Arbitration For Sport (CAS) declined the appeal by the Indian Olympic Association (IOA).
India secured 19 medals at the Tokyo Paralympics 2020 and would be looking to extend their good performance in this Paralympics as well. A total of 5 gold medals, 8 silver medals and 6 bronze medals were won by the Indian contingent.
A total of 84 India athletes have been sent to Paris Paralympics 2024 and they have a lot of responsibilities and onus under their belt.
