During a recent meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Indian Paralympic gold medalists, including Navdeep Singh and Sumit Antil, shared their experiences from the Paris 2024 Paralympics. Navdeep, who won gold in the men's javelin F41 event, attributed his success to the support of senior athletes, which helped alleviate his nerves. The Indian contingent concluded the Games with a historic medal tally of 29, including seven golds, surpassing their previous best of 19 medals from Tokyo 2020. PM Modi praised the athletes for their achievements, describing the event as 'special and historical.' Notably, Avani Lekhara became the first Indian woman to win two Paralympic gold medals, while Sumit Antil defended his title with a record-breaking throw. Modi's interactions with the athletes highlighted the growing recognition and support for para-sports in India.
