Paris Paralympics 2024 India Day 10 Schedule: Full list of events, venues, & timings in IST, September 7
Ahead of the Paris 2024 Paralympics’ penultimate day, the Indian contingent has already made history, clinching 27 medals, their most ever in a single edition of the event. With two more days of sporting action remaining, India has the opportunity to push that tally even higher, potentially reaching the remarkable 30-medal mark by the end of Saturday, September 7.
On Day 10 of the Paralympics, India’s hopes are high, with several athletes in strong contention for podium finishes. Navdeep Singh, a World Championships bronze medalist, will be looking to secure his first Paralympic medal in the men’s javelin throw F41 event. The 23-year-old narrowly missed out on the podium in Tokyo 2020, finishing fourth, but will be looking to finish higher up the order in this event, which is scheduled for 10:30 PM IST at the Stade de France.
Simran Sharma, the current world champion in the women’s 200m T12, will take to the track in the finals, aiming to redeem herself after narrowly missing out on a medal in the 100m T12 event earlier in the Games.
Meanwhile, Tokyo Olympian Prachi Yadav will compete in the Women’s Va’a Single 200m VL2 event in para canoeing. With her fourth-place finish at the 2023 World Championships, Prachi remains a contender for a medal if she can qualify for Final A.
Dilip Gavit is another medal hopeful for India. He will be competing in the men’s 400m T47 final, scheduled for 12:29 AM IST (September 8).
Apart from the four major medal hopes, other Indian athletes will also be in action in para-cycling, para-canoeing, and para-swimming, and will be looking to add to India’s medal haul.
