Paris 2024 Paralympics: Full list of Indian athletes qualified for the Games

The Paris Paralympics are scheduled to start on August 28 and conclude on September 8. Twelve days of top-notch action will include a total of 84 Indian athletes. From the last edition's gold-medal winner in the javelin (F64) Sumit Antil to taekwondo (K44) athlete Aruna, the contingent looks good and medals can be expected from the same.

However, there are a few setbacks, such as the omission of Tokyo Paralympics gold medalist Pramod Bhagat. He has recently been suspended by the Badminton World Federation (BWF) for 18 months for breaching anti-doping regulations.

Nonetheless, the other athletes participating are no less and will be eyeing to better their best tally till now, albeit from the Tokyo edition, of 19 medals. Last time India won five gold, eight silver, and six bronze medals and this time, the contingent is upbeat for more.

On that note, let's take a look at the athletes who will represent India at the Paris Paralympics.
