Embracing Triumphs Beyond Medals

The first-ever Khelo India Para Games echoed a saga of resilience and glory, marking a historic chapter in sports. Haryana’s outstanding performance, clinching an impressive tally of 105 medals, including 40 gold, signifies not just victory but a celebration of grit and unwavering resolve.

This monumental event went beyond mere competition; it embodied the spirit of inclusivity and unyielding determination. Para-athletes like Sheetal Devi, Yogesh Kathuniya, Bhavina Patel, and Nishad Kumar, shining from their triumphs in the Asian Para Games, stood as beacons of excellence. Emerging talents shattered barriers, triumphing over physical constraints to seize podium honours.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's words, 'Kheloge toh khiloge,' echoed profoundly as, 1450 para-athletes from 32 states graced this prestigious event, competing across seven disciplines. The Khelo India Para Games 2023 etched moments of unparalleled human strength, setting new benchmarks, and challenging stereotypes.

In resonance with this fervour, our magazine proudly champions para-athletes through our dedicated column 'Beyond Barriers.' This ongoing endeavour illuminates their remarkable journeys, spotlighting their triumphs and igniting inspiration for generations to come.

As we honour perseverance and inclusivity, let’s embrace the legacy that extends beyond medals, embodying the enduring spirit of humanity in sports.
