WAPC 2025: From Losing His Hand To Turning Heads, Rinku Comes A Long Way With Extraordinary Gold

By IANS News September 29, 2025 • 22:50 PM View: 564

World Para Athletics Championships: India para-athlete Rinku made history for Indian javelin, winning a gold medal with a meet record to boot in the men's F46 event in the 2025 World Para Athletics Championships at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium here on Monday. Rinku led a 1-2 for the hosts as compatriot Sundar Singh Gurjar claimed the silver medal.

The night could have been even better for the hosts if Ajeet Singh had had a good day. Unfortunately, he finished fourth.
