    Khelo India Para Games: Top sporting personalities continue to grace the inaugural Khelo India Para Games in Delhi. It was the turn of two famous sportspersons – former world championship medallist Anju Bobby George and ex-Indian hockey captain Viren Rasquinha -- to soak in the emotionally-charged Games on Wednesday.

    These Games were aimed to foster the message of inclusivity and dignity towards specially challenged athletes and Anju Bobby George highlighted how the Khelo India Para Games 2023 are “bridging the gap between different sections of the society.”

    "During our time, para was a separate entity and they would not get equal recognition. But now they are receiving an equal platform as able-bodied athletes. The competition and support are at par and especially in these Games, the entire India is getting a chance and all the kids are so elated to get an opportunity to compete," said 2003 World Athletics Championship long jump bronze winner Anju.
