The opening day of the Sports Science Conclave at the Indira Gandhi Stadium on Wednesday, served as a testament to India's evolving sporting landscape, transcending traditional boundaries by amplifying the focus on sports events for specially challenged athletes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Thakur has advocated inclusivity and equitable opportunities for para-athletes. \"It's truly encouraging to witness NCSSR organizing pivotal conclaves where stakeholders convene to shape the trajectory of both able-bodied and para-athletes. An inclusive approach prevails, with equal facilities and respect extended to all athletes, blurring any perceived distinctions. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cThe conclave's theme, 'Limitless Horizons,' resonates deeply with the soaring spirit of 'hauslo ki udaan.' It's a dedicated platform recognizing and deliberating upon sports science for differently-abled and para-athletes, poised to propel India forward in the sporting arena,\" he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
