Nishad Kumar Wins Silver in High Jump at Paralympics 2024
Indian para-badminton player Nitesh Kumar won a gold medal in the men's singles SL3 event at the Paris Paralympics 2024, defeating Great Britain's Daniel Bethell in a closely contested match that lasted over an hour. This victory marks India's second gold medal at the Games, following para-shooter Avani Lekhara's earlier success. Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated Nishad Kumar for winning a silver medal in the men's high jump T47 event, making him the youngest para-athlete to earn medals in two consecutive Paralympics. India's total medal count at the Paris Paralympics now stands at seven, including one gold, two silvers, and four bronzes. The performance of Indian athletes at the Games underscores the country's growing prowess in para-sports, with significant achievements also in shooting events. As the Paralympics continue, hopes remain high for further successes from the Indian contingent.
