World Para Athletics Grand Prix: India delivered an exceptional performance on Day 2 of the New Delhi 2026 World Para Athletics Grand Prix, securing multiple podium finishes across track and field events, including several clean sweeps of the podium.
The highlight of the day came in the Men’s Javelin Throw F43/F44/F64, where Paralympic champion Sumit Antil led an all-Indian podium. Antil clinched gold with a powerful throw of 69.25 metres, while Pushpendra Singh secured silver with 56.91m and Poonam Ram won bronze with 49.48m.
