ABP News  

Paris Paralympics 2024, Day 1 Live Updates: Not long after the conclusion of the Paris Olympics 2024, the French Capital is all set to host the Paralympic Games with a grand opening ceremony formally having declared the Paralympics open. So there will be a lot of action on the opening day of the Paris Paralympics 2024. With some talented athletes as well as proven performers like Sumit Antil, Sheetal Devi, Bhagyashree Jadhav set to be in action India would like to believe that they can indeed get past that mark with ease and somewhat make up for the Paris Olympics 2024 which largely remained a story of what could have beens for- despite India finishing with 6 medals. As per the information available, over 2 million tickets have been sold for the Paralympic events already and with what we have seen so far, this Paralympics can shatter several records with ease, much like it did by hosting an opening ceremony outside the confines of a stadium for the first time, much like how it did in the Paris Olympics 2024 opening ceremony.
