Summary

This inspirational text introduces the Paralympic Games – a celebration of resilience and the talent of athletes with locomotor, sensory or intellectual disabilities – and then presents an interview with the Indian para-athlete Dr. Deepa Malik. India debuted in the Paralympics in 1968 and won its first medal in swimming in 1972. Dr. Malik recounts how, at twenty-nine, she was diagnosed with a spinal tumour and, after surgery, was paralysed from the waist down and confined to a wheelchair. Faced with a choice between wasting her life in remorse or transforming it, she switched to para-athletics and won a silver medal in shot-put at the 2016 Rio Paralympics – becoming India’s first female Paralympic medallist. Listed among the ten most inspirational women para-athletes globally and honoured with the Khel Ratna, Arjuna and Padma Shri awards, she stresses that “physical limitations don’t define one’s potential” and champions the idea of “ability beyond disability.” She describes overcoming societal underestimation through mental resilience and family support, and explains how Paralympics break stereotypes about disability. Now an advocate for inclusivity and accessibility, she empowers women through sport, supports athletes from poorer backgrounds, and conducts disability-awareness sessions in schools. Her message: every setback is an opportunity to prove your strength, and disability is a unique strength waiting to be unleashed.
