India's stellar performance continues in the Paris Paralympics 2024 Games. Indian athletes performed brilliantly and won eight medals on Monday and five on Tuesday. The number of medals won by India in this Paralympics has reached 20 so far. This time India has entered these games with a target of crossing 25. In such a situation, Indian athletes are leaving no stone unturned to achieve this target. The story that started with Avni Lekhara continues and many medals can come on the seventh day as well. 84 para-athletes are representing India in the Paris Paralympics. These games are to be held till September 8. India is competing in 12 disciplines, which is three more than Tokyo.
Will it be able to surpass this achievement?
The Paris Paralympics has proved to be the most successful Paralympics for India. Tokyo Paralympics 2020 was India's most successful Paralympics before this. India had sent 54 athletes in it and managed to win 19 medals. These included five gold, eight silver, and six bronze medals. India has broken the record of the Tokyo Paralympics with 20 medals. However, this time the number of gold is still less than in Tokyo. In the Tokyo Paralympics, India won the most gold medals in the history of these games. If Indian athletes manage to win six gold medals, then this record will also be broken. India's rank in Tokyo 2020 was 24, which is the best till date. India has a great opportunity to leave this achievement behind.
