Harvinder, Storey Shine at 2024 Paralympics

Dame Sarah Storey won her 19th Paralympic gold medal in a thrilling finish to the women's C 4-5 road race in Paris, overcoming a late surge by France's Heidi Gaugain. India's Harvinder Singh advanced to the quarterfinals of the archery mixed-team event and won his first Paralympic gold in the men's individual recurve open class, showcasing remarkable resilience despite early health challenges. Another Indian athlete, Pranav Soorma, clinched a silver medal in the men's club throw F51 event, marking a significant achievement given his severe spinal cord injury at age 16. Avani Lekhara, despite not medaling in the women's 50m rifle 3 positions SH1 competition, remains a standout performer as the first Indian woman to win two Paralympic gold medals.
