    Armwrestling Federation India: The People’s Armwrestling Federation India (PAFI) has expressed its delight over Para Armwrestling officially meeting the worldwide reach requirement set by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) for inclusion of the sport in the Brisbane 2032 Paralympic Games. The PAFI said the news has been confirmed by the World Armwrestling Federation (WAF).

    Following the submission of additional participation data by WAF, the IPC confirmed that Para Armwrestling now exceeds the minimum benchmark of 32 countries with regular and widespread participation, marking a significant milestone in the sport’s journey towards potential Paralympic inclusion.

    The development is being seen as a major boost for India’s medal prospects at future Paralympic Games, with the country already possessing a strong and growing talent pool in Para Armwrestling. Over the last few years, PAFI and the Pro Panja League have consistently worked towards creating a professional platform for Para Athletes by including dedicated Para Armwrestling categories across both seasons of the Pro Panja League, as well as during Mega Matches conducted in different regions of India.
