Within just six days of the Games, India has crossed the Tokyo medal haul registering the best ever show at the Paralympic Games. The Indian athletes have so far won 20 medals (3 gold, 7 silver and 10 bronze) and are expected to win a few more in the upcoming days as well.  <!-- \/8323530\/ITv_Desktop_VDO_1X1 -->\n  <\/p>\n<p>Ajeet Singh and Sundar Singh Gurjar took India officially past the Tokyo medal tally winning silver and bronze respectively on Tuesday (September 3) in the men&#8217;s javelin throw T46 final. It is a commendable performance, especially after the recent disappointment at the Olympics recently where India could only win six medals finishing at the 71st position. On the contrary, the tricolour is flying high at the 19th place currently in the Paris Paralympics.<\/p>\n<p>India&#8217;s Chef de Mission Satya Prakash Sangwan&#8217;s prediction is almost turning true as he had predicted a record 28 medals in an exclusive interview with India TV even before the start of the Paris Paralympics. He had also stated that India will finish in the top 20 in the medal tally and the country is currently at 19th place. &#8220;We won four in the 2016 Rio Games and 19 medals in Tokyo but now we are looking at a record 25-plus medals in Paris.\u00a0My gut feeling is saying 28 medals for India. We are not only hoping but we are confident of a record 28 medals, including eight to ten golds, in Paris.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are hoping to make everyone proud by finishing inside T20 (top twenty teams in medal table) in this Paralympics. India will definitely finish in the T20 and we will continue to work to finish in the top ten in the medal table,&#8221; Sangwan had said. Moreover, India also crossed the 50-medal mark in the history of Paralympics having won 51 so far.<\/p>\n<p><strong>India&#8217;s medal winners at Paris Paralympics so far<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Shooting<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Avani Lekhara &#8211; Gold<\/p>\n<p>Mona Agarwal &#8211; Bronze<\/p>\n<p>Manish Narwal &#8211; Silver<\/p>\n<p>Rubina Francis &#8211; Bronze<\/p>\n<p><strong>Athletics<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Preethi Pal &#8211; Bronze (won twice)<\/p>\n<p>Nishad Kumar &#8211; Silver<\/p>\n<p>Yogesh Kathuniya &#8211; Silver<\/p>\n<p>Sumit Antil &#8211; Gold<\/p>\n<p>Deepthi Jeevanji &#8211; Bronze    <\/p>\n<p>Sharad Kumar &#8211; Silver<\/p>\n<p>Mariyappan Thangavelu &#8211; Bronze<\/p>\n<p>Ajeet Singh &#8211; Silver<\/p>\n<p>Sundar Singh Gurjar &#8211; Bronze<\/p>\n<p><strong>Archery<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Rakesh Kumar \/ Sheeta Devi &#8211; Bronze<\/p>\n<p><strong>Badminton<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nitesh Kumar &#8211; Gold<\/p>\n<p>Manisha Ramadass &#8211; Bronze<\/p>\n<p>Thulasimathi Murugesan &#8211; Silver<\/p>\n<p>Suhas Yathiraj &#8211; Silver<\/p>\n<p>Nithya Sre Sivan &#8211; Bronze<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async>\nfunction loadFacebookScript(){\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '529056027274737');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n}\nwindow.addEventListener('load', (event) => {\n\tsetTimeout(function(){\n        loadFacebookScript();\n\t}, 5000);\n});\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/sports\/other\/india-register-best-ever-performance-at-paris-paralympics-overhaul-tokyo-medal-tally-in-just-six-days-2024-09-04-950310\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image Source : GETTY Ajeet Singh and Sundar Singh Gurjar won silver and bronze in men&#8217;s javelin throw T46 event The Indian contingent at the Paris Paralympics is putting in an exceptional performance.
