Neeraj Chopra Celebrates India's Performance At Paris Paralympics

Star Indian javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra on Monday congratulated the Indian contingent for their performance at the Paris Paralympics. The Indian contingent concluded its historic Paris Paralympics campaign with a total of 29 medals, including seven gold, nine silver, and 13 bronze medals, the most by the country in the history of the competition. With this landmark campaign, India has surpassed their previously most-successful campaign at Tokyo 2020 Paralympics, which gave them 19 medals, including five golds, eight silvers, and six bronze medals.

Paris Paralympics 2024: Complete List Of India's 29 Medal Winners

India's campaign at the Paris Paralympics 2024 concluded with the country fetching a total of 29 medals. On Sunday, Pooja Ojha was the only remaining athlete in action, but she failed to finish inside the top three spots to miss the final berth of the women's kayak single 200m KL1 sprint canoeing event. India, hence, couldn't reach the elusive 30-medal mark at the Paris Games but did manage to better the Tokyo Games tally where the contingent had gathered a total of 19 medals. In the process, India finished the Paris games with record haul of seven gold, nine silver, and 13 bronze medals, set to finish 18th in the overall medals tally.

From Unexpected Medals To Title Defence: A Look At India's Performance At Paris Paralympics 2024

Differently-abled but exceptionally resolute, India's para-athletes would look back at their Paralympics campaign with pride as most of the established names lived up to expectations and many talented greenhorns made the big stage their own in a record-smashing medal haul of 29. Seven of these 29 medals are gold, which is another first for the country that started to make its presence felt only in the 2016 edition, where it won four medals. The upswing in performance after that has been meteoric with Tokyo yielding 19, a number that was surpassed this time.

Devendra Jhajharia's 'Winning Tip' Played Its Part In Navdeep Singh's Win

A "small yet powerful advice" from India's celebrated javelin thrower Devendra Jhajharia proved to be crucial for Navdeep Singh, who clinched a historic gold medal at the Paris Paralympics. This was India's first-ever gold in the F41 category, which is meant for athletes of short stature. "Sir ke paas bahut experience hain, aur woh hamesha fase huye match nikalte hain, so maine mere problems bataye (Sir has loads of experience, he always finds a way to win difficult matches, so I discussed my problems with him," Navdeep recalled their conversation in a video shared by the Paralympics Committee of India.

Rising Above 'Bauna' Taunts, How Navdeep Singh Made History With Paralympics Gold

Javelin thrower Navdeep Singh clinched a gold medal in the F41 classification at Paris Paralympics on Saturday. For India, it was a 7th gold at Paris 2024 and 16th in its Paralympic history, but for Navdeep, the top honour was way more than that. Having suffered from dwarfism, Navdeep endured not just the usual rigours of training but cruel taunts from onlookers while growing up in his village in Haryana's Panipat district. And his gold medal on Saturday was a testimony to his resilience and determination. It would not only inspire him but a lot of other specially-abled people too, who went through a similar fate.

What India's Navdeep Singh Did As Iranian Athlete Was Disqualified Over Flag Gesture

The men's javelin F41 final in the Paris Paralympics concluded on a controversial note after initial gold medal winner Sadegh Beit Sayah was disqualified over the display of a controversial flag. The 'improper conduct' from the Iranian athlete saw India's Navdeep Singh's silver medal being upgraded to gold, giving the country its 7th yellow metal at the Paris Para Games. While Navdeep was ecstatic to take the top podium spot in the event, he got emotional seeing his opponent Sayah break down upon knowing that his effort was disqualified due to the flag gesture.
