    Kobe World Para Athletics Championships: Dharambir was the biggest medal winner for India at the 2025 World Para Athletics Championships at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on Thursday as he bagged a silver in the men’s club throw F51, a category deemed the severest in para games under “impaired muscle power.”

    The 36-year-old, gold medallist in the 2024 Paris Paralympics, came up with his best (29.71) in his sixth and last attempt and secured the medal on Thursday.

    “I am happy with my performance. To be on the podium on your home turf is special. Yes, gold would have been better, but I am still happy,” Target Olympic Podium Scheme (TOPS) athlete Dharambir, draped in the Indian tri-colour, said.
