Paris Paralympics: India's full schedule, day-wise events and timings

The 2024 Paralympic Games will run from August 28 to September 8. With 1 day left, the India Paralympics contingent is all set for the Paris Paralympics 2024. The Indian Paralympics team has sent its largest-ever Paralympics contingent of 84 athletes. India will also aim to build on a successful 2020 Tokyo Paralympics run where the India Paralympics team won more medals alone than they did in all the previous editions combined. India won 19 medals at the 2020 Tokyo Paralympics whereas they had won a total of 12 medals between the Paralympic Games debut at Tel Aviv in 1968 and the Rio Paralympics 2016. The focus now shifts to the India Paralympics contingent for the Paris Paralympics 2024. Here's all you need to know about India's full schedule, day-wise events and timings at the 2024 Paralympic Games.

Paris Paralympics 2024: India's full schedule, day-wise events and timings

1. Sumit Antil to lead the India Paralympics contingent in Paralympics opening ceremony

The India Paralympics contingent is a perfect combination of seasoned champions and promising debutants. The Paralympics has seen individual athletes take up the role to bring glory to the country. India prepares to put on their best-ever performance in the Paris Paralympics 2024 with its largest-ever Paralympics contingent. All eyes will be on these athletes as they look to etch their names into the India Paralympics history. India's javelin thrower Sumit Antil who has been selected as one of the flag-bearers for India in the Paris Paralympics 2024, was among India's five gold medallists in the 2020 Tokyo Paralympics and he will be looking to defend his javelin throw title in Paris. Another gold medal in the 2024 Paralympic Games will make him only the second Indian to win 2 gold medals in javelin throw at the Paralympics.

2. Young guns Avani Lekhara and Sheetal Devi all set to bring glory to India

22-year-old Avani Lekhara will be setting her sights on consecutive Paralympic gold medals at the Paris Paralympics 2024 which will make her the first Indian para-shooter to achieve the feat. Avani Lekhara won a historic gold medal in her debut Paralympics campaign, shooting a new Paralympic record score of 249.6 in the women's 10m air rifle shooting standing SH1 final in Tokyo. It made Avani Lekhara the first Indian woman to win a Paralympic gold medal. Lekhara will even be dreaming of winning two gold medals in the same Paralympics which will cement her status as one of the greatest Indian athletes of all time.

On the flip side, star Indian para-archer Sheetal Devi is a strong favourite to become the first Indian female to win an archery medal at the Paralympics. Sheetal Devi was born in 2007 with phocomelia, a rare congenital disorder leading to underdeveloped limbs. The condition resulted in her arms not fully forming. Fast forward at the age of 17, Sheetal is confident of bagging the gold medal at the Paris Paralympics 2024. Her consistent performances on the global stage make her a top para-athlete to watch out for in the India Paralympics team.
