With 29 medals, including 7 gold, India record best-ever Paralympic Games.
Tonight, the closing ceremony celebrates the remarkable achievements of our athletes and the record-breaking performance of the Indian contingent in Paris. Join us as we honour their incredible journey and the spirit of determination that has shone through in every event.
Harvinder Singh, who secured a historic gold medal in Para Archery—the first for India at any Olympics or Paralympics—will lead the contingent with immense pride. He expressed his elation, stating, “Winning gold for India has been a dream come true, and now leading our nation as a flag bearer at the Closing Ceremony is the highest honor I could imagine. This victory is for everyone who believed in me, and I hope to inspire many more to pursue their dreams.”
Joining him will be Preethi Pal, who made history by clinching bronze medals in both the Women’s 100m T35 and Women’s 200m T35 events. She became the first-ever track athlete from India to secure multiple medals at the Paralympics. Preethi Pal shared her excitement, saying, “It is a great honor to represent India as a flag bearer. This moment is not just about me; it’s about every para-athlete who has pushed their limits to make our nation proud. I am thrilled to be leading our incredible team at the Closing Ceremony.”
