Being a professional athlete is a challenging task, further being a paralympic sportsperson or athlete in India is a sum of both, double the hard work and an added layer of discriminatory blows. Given the smacks and blows, these athletes have made India proud by bagging 29 medals at the Paralympic Paris Games 2024 this year, and their glory only continues. Be it Avani Lekhara, who became the first Indian woman to bag two glorious gold Paralympic medals or Mona Agarwal, mother of two who made her Paralympic debut in Paris this year and snagged a bronze medal right away!.
