‘It feels good to have defended my title’

The Tokyo Paralympics gold medal winner reigned supreme in the final and broke the Paralympic record throw twice to claim his place at the top of the podium in the F64 javelin throw in Paris.

He kicked off the proceed gings with a throw of 69.11m and broke his own Paralympic Record of 68.55 m that he set in Tokyo. In his second throw, he bettered his Paralympic record by sending his javelin to record-breaking distance of 70.59m, rewriting the record book yet again.

Earlier on Tuesday, the Indian contingent of the Paris Paralympics ref turned back to India after their record-breaking performance at the multi-sport event.

Speaking to ANI, Sumit said that he worked really hard before the Paralympics and it was worth it for him.
