Indian Paralympians are making headlines at the Paris Paralympics with stellar performances. Suhas Yathiraj is positioned for unprecedented glory, securing a spot in the men's singles SL4 final for the second consecutive time after outplaying fellow Indian Sukant Kadam.

Manisha Ramadass ensured a medal for India in the women's singles SU5 category by reaching the semifinals. Despite battling Erb's palsy, the 19-year-old defeated Japan's Mamiko Toyoda in the quarterfinals, setting up an all-Indian clash with Thulasimathi Murugesan.

However, the shooting range witnessed setbacks for India, as Avani Lekhara missed out on a medal in her pet event. Despite these mixed results, the determination and spirit of these athletes remain commendable.
