Preethi Pal has made history by winning a bronze medal at the Paris Paralympics, marking a significant achievement for India.
Her victory is a testament to her unwavering determination and relentless pursuit of excellence despite challenges.
She got interested in para-sports at the age of 17 after watching clips of the Paralympic Games on social media.
Her life changed a few years after starting to practice athletics when she met her mentor, Paralympian Fathima Khatoon.
Encouraged by Fathima, Preeti took part in district, state, and national competitions and made her international appearance at the Asian Para Games last year.
Preethi's journey to the podium has been one of inspiring resilience and hard work, overcoming obstacles with grace.
Preethi bagged her first international medal in the World Para Athletics Championship, where she claimed bronze medals in both the 100m and 200m events in 2024.
Her bronze medal at the Paris Paralympics is not just a personal victory but a monumental moment for Indian sports.
