World Champions Suhas Yathiraj, Pramod Bhagat, Krishna Nagar, Manasi Joshi, Sumit Antil and Yogesh Kathuniya headline presence of Paris 2024 - Comité d'organisation des Jeux Olympiques et Paralympiques de 2024 stars at the Trailblazers Conclave. 7-8 March 2024, Kolkata. When you are fighting for newsprint against cricket, you always have the risk of ending up second best. And when it is an intense Test match in Ranchi that could lead to an Indian series win, it is more so. Thereafter in the evening there is the WPL. No wonder than that Indias gold medal winners at the Para badminton world championships, Suhas Yathiraj, Pramod Bhagat and Krishna Nagar aren’t really celebrated in today’s sports pages. Each has won a world championship gold by the way and in doing so added to our expectations for the Paris Paralympics. Suhas’ reaction has gone viral on social media and is evidence what the gold means to him and his coach Gaurav Khanna. I am delighted to say each one of them, and others like Manasi Joshi who did as well in the world’s, Sumit Antil and Yogesh Kathuniya headline the list of Paralympic champions attending the trailblazers conclave. The idea is to celebrate their journeys and take a step towards equality. While we need to understand how they are all readying themselves for the ultimate Paralympic dream, it is also time to take stock and take a pause. Do we celebrate them enough? Are they still treated as objects of sympathy or are they athletes who deserve much more? How do we accelerate this change? For Suhas, an IAS officer of repute, sport is his means to stay in the zone. Face adversity and get ready for the challenges like Covid. For Sumit Antil, who breaks world records at almost every competition he participates, touching the 75m mark in Javelin is now the goal. Just as we celebrate Neeraj, we will celebrate Sumit. As much as we celebrate Prannoy, we will celebrate Suhas. That’s the idea behind the Trailblazers conclave presented by Tata Steel Let’s make a bold prediction here. India won 1 medal in London 2012. It became 4 in Rio 2016 and 19 in Tokyo 2020. I think 40 medals in Paris isn’t a far cry. It could be a watershed moment for Indian sport and mainstream Paralympic sport in a way that we haven’t seen before. For us at RevSportz able bodied and Para sport need to be celebrated side by side. For Para sport is Parallel sport and not sport for men and women with disabilities. That’s how we become a more inclusive society and a better country. At Trailblazers 2.0 that’s what we will be doing as we celebrate our Champions.

India’s Medal Triumph at the Paris Paralympics: A Golden Milestone! India's journey at the Paris Paralympics 2024 has been nothing short of extraordinary! Navdeep's incredible performance in the F41 men’s javelin throw event has brought India its 7th gold medal after a dramatic upgrade, while Simran’s remarkable sprint in the T12 200m secured her a well-deserved bronze. Navdeep initially finished second, but his silver was upgraded to gold after the disqualification of Iran’s Beit Sayah Sadegh, who was penalized for unsporting behavior. This makes Navdeep’s 47.32-meter throw not only a personal best but also a new Paralympic record! Simran, another star of the Games, clinched the bronze medal in the T12 200m race with a personal best time of 24.75 seconds, adding to India’s growing medal tally. Her story is one of grit and determination, overcoming her visual impairment and personal loss to become a beacon of inspiration. With a total of 29 medals, including 7 golds, India stands proud among the top-performing nations at the Games. These victories are a testament to the unwavering spirit of our athletes and the country's commitment to inclusivity in sports. Curious to know more about these inspiring journeys?

India Shines in the Paris 2024 Paralympics: A Historic Performance India has achieved its best-ever performance at the Paris 2024 Paralympics, securing a total of 29 medals and finishing 18th in the overall standings. This remarkable achievement marks a significant improvement from India's 43rd place in Rio 2016 and 24th in Tokyo 2020. The seven gold, nine silver, and 13 bronze medals are a testament to the para-athletes' resilience and excellence despite the challenges they face. With 17 medals in para-athletics, including standout performances in javelin throw and high jump, Indian athletes excelled across multiple disciplines. Special recognition goes to Sumit Antil and Avani Lekhara, who defended their gold medals, and Sheetal Devi, who made history as the youngest Indian Paralympic medalist at just 17. The Games also saw India's first medals in para-judo, won by Kapil Parmar, and track events, with Preethi Pal clinching two bronzes in the 100m and 200m T35 events. India’s inspiring performance, fueled by increased government support and a growing focus on para-sports, calls for further investment and recognition from corporate and governmental entities to ensure continued progress. The Paris Paralympics 2024, with a near-capacity crowd and over two million tickets sold, highlighted the growing global enthusiasm for para-sports and set the stage for a more inclusive sporting future. #IndiaAtParalympics #Paris2024 #ParaAthletes #Inspiration #Inclusivity #SportsForAll

Did you know about India's first Paralympic Gold medalist? Nobody did until recently and now we have a movie about his life. After being injured in the 1965 Indo-Pak war, Murlikant Petkar, also known as Chandu, took up swimming to rebuild his life. In 1972, he won gold in the 50-meter freestyle, setting a world record. His journey shows us what’s possible with determination and support. Here are 3 things we all can learn from Chandu’s Paralympic journey: 3. Words are easy. Actions aren’t. Not only did Chandu dream about making a comeback, he took action every single day. If you’re serious about overcoming challenges, stop talking and start doing. 2. If one path is blocked, find another. After his injury, Chandu couldn’t box anymore, so he turned to swimming. Don’t get stuck. Adapt and find a new way forward. 1. Chandu had mentors and coaches who believed in him. Surround yourself with people who lift you up. Chandu’s gold medal is proof that when we include everyone, we all win. His journey shows us that with the right support, no challenge is too great. What’s stopping you from taking the first step?

Our Paralympics Champions Have made India Proud Again! 3 Gold, 8 Silver, 10 Bronze These are not India’s goals for the next Olympics. 21 medals: This is India’s current winning streak at the #Paralympics. India’s para-athletes are shining, delivering exceptional performances across multiple sports. From archery to rowing, and badminton to athletics, their determination and skill are truly inspiring. But why are our athletes not getting the attention that they truly deserve? Why is the focus always on winning gold at the Olympics? It’s disheartening to see that the achievements of our paralympic athletes often take a backseat to those of Olympic athletes. While both groups represent India on the global stage, the Paralympics also deserve equal recognition and celebration. We all should be immensely proud of our athletes, as a medal in the Paralympics is just as significant as a medal in the Olympics! Nitesh Kumar, Sumit Antil, and Avani Lekhara – These are the names we should know today, not just when a movie is made about them 20 years later. These athletes are true role models, inspiring millions with their victories. They deserve to be celebrated for their extraordinary talent and dedication. #Paralympics #Paris2024 #GoldMedalists #IndianAthletes #SumitAnil #NiteshKumar #BreakingBarriers
