Warangal Girl Creates New Record At World Para Athletics Championship
The daughter of daily wage workers from Kalleda in Warangal, Deepthi Jeevanji, accomplished an amazing feat on Monday in the World Para Athletics Championships in Kobe, Japan. She couldn't even afford a bus ticket to Hyderabad for training just a few years ago. With a time of 55.07 seconds, she won gold in the women's 400-meter T20 event, smashing the previous record. This beat the previous mark of 55.12 seconds, which was achieved in 2023 in Paris during the World Championships by American Breanna Clark.
