PM Modi Is The Reason Behind Boom In Para Sports: Paris Paralympics Medalist Yogesh Kathuniya
"Since Prime Minister Modi came into power, the boom in para sports, especially since 2016, can largely be attributed to his efforts. Whether it was after Rio, Tokyo, or Paris, his involvement has made sports more inclusive in a way that no one else has done. He has always helped us like a friend in good times and bad. He provides a lot of support through Target Olympic Podium Scheme (TOPS) and Khelo India," Yogesh Kathuniya told IANS.
Indian thrower Yogesh Kathuniya won the silver medal in the Men's Discus Throw - F56 event with a season's best throw at the Paris Paralympics. Kathuniya, who also won the silver medal in the F56 category at the World Para-Athletics Championships in May, recorded the throw of 42.22m to take the silver behind Brazil's Claudiney Batista dos Santos, who clinched gold a Paralympic record throw of 46.86m.
