That's how we closed the Paris Paralympics!
7 Golds, 9 Silvers, and 13 Bronzes—our best-ever Paralympics, and by some distance!
These numbers are etched in stone now and will be remembered for a very long time. And so will the moments.
There is a lot to love about how the Indian contingent played the games, and I wholeheartedly congratulate all the players, administrators, and support staff for achieving this.

Introverts are good writers because they've been refining their inner dialogue their whole lives and have imaginary conversations with people on a daily basis.
y’all only take mental health seriously when it’s conveyed through death, but once it’s shown through lack of productivity, lack of hygiene, a messy room, unkempt hair, bad breath, it’s no longer mental health matters, now it’s “disgusting”, it’s “laziness”. what a shame.

On September 19, 1991, while hiking in the Ötztal Valley in the Alps, German hikers Erika and Helmut Simon stumbled upon what they initially thought was the body of a recently deceased mountain climber.
However, it turned out that this was a remarkably preserved mummy, later named Ötzi, which had been encased in ice for over 5,300 years.
The mummy was surrounded by various artifacts, including a bow and a quiver containing arrows, a copper-bladed axe, a flint dagger with a wicker sheath, birch wood vessels lined with maple leaves, remnants of a backpack, a leather pouch holding small items, and clothing and shoes made from fur and leather, among other minor items.
Researchers analyzing Ötzi concluded that he likely met a violent end due to an arrowhead found lodged in his left shoulder and other injuries on his body, suggesting he was the victim of murder.
When Albert Einstein met Charlie Chaplin in 1931, Einstein said, "What I admire most about your art is its universality. You do not say a word, and yet the world understands you." "It's true." Replied Chaplin, "But your fame is even greater. The world admires you, when no one understands you."
