The Khelo India Para Games: Amid the grandeur and spectacle of the Khelo India Para Games 2023, a heartwarming narrative unfolds—one of compassion, resilience, and a mother's unwavering dedication to changing lives. Girija Kumari Madhu, an unassuming housewife turned catalyst for change, has emerged as a beacon of hope for over 1400 children battling Cerebral Palsy.

Cerebral Palsy (CP), a neurological disorder affecting body movement and muscle coordination, often leaves its young victims marginalized and neglected in society. In the shadows of the grand sporting event, Girija stands as a testament to the transformative power of kindness and determination.

Three years ago, Girija, a football enthusiast since her teenage years, discovered the world of Cerebral Palsy football during a meeting with the All India Football Federation (AIFF). Driven by her personal experiences and a deep-seated belief in the power of sports, she resolved to make a difference in the lives of CP-affected children.
