Individual Compound Open Ranking Round: Determined to return with their best-ever haul in the Paralympic Games, India's biggest-ever contingent for the mega event will launch a historical campaign in French Capital on Thursday with action starting in badminton, archery and table tennis. India's archers, shuttlers and paddlers will get into action on the opening day of competition, getting through the preliminary rounds.

The 16-year-old para-archer Sheetal Devi will be among the first Indian participants to take the field for the Women's Individual Compound Open Ranking Round along with compatriot Sarita.

Sheetal, the wonder archer who shoots arrows in bullseye with ease using her legs and mouth, won two gold and one silver medal in the Asian Para Games in Hangzhou last year. The archer from Kishtwar from Jammu and Kashmir will be hoping to achieve a top seeding in the Open Ranking round in women's compound archery.
