Indian para-athletes are gearing up for a remarkable showing at the 2024 Paris Paralympics, with a record 84-member contingent set to compete across 12 sports.

The Paralympics, which starts on August 28, has heightened expectations as the Indian contingent aims to surpass their previous medal tally of 19 achieved in the Tokyo Paralympics.

With the number of athletes increasing from 54 in Tokyo to 84 this year, the nation hopes to surpass the previous edition's tally.

Among the athletes to watch out for are reigning gold medalists Sumit Antil, who will compete in the javelin throw event, and Avani Lekhara, who will aim to defend her title in the 10m air rifle SH1 category. Other notable participants include Sheetal Devi in archery and Krishna Nagar in badminton.
