From 14 medals to 114: How India achieved more with fewer athletes at Asian Para Games

India achieved a record-breaking performance at the Asian Para Games, securing 114 medals despite fielding a smaller delegation than in previous years. The national team consisted of 167 athletes, including 111 men and 56 women, competing across 11 sports at the Aichi-Nagoya games.

This performance marks a significant improvement over the 2023 Hangzhou campaign, where India sent 309 athletes. By surpassing the previous medal record by six, the team demonstrated increased efficiency in its athletic output, achieving higher results with a reduced roster size.
