World Archery Para Championships: This International Women's Day, let's celebrate the resilience of women who defy the odds and carve their path to success with their courage and resilience. Among these extraordinary individuals stands Sheetal Devi, who at 16 is the first female para-archer to compete globally without arms.
Tales of athletes triumphing against daunting odds are not uncommon in the realm of sports. However, amidst these inspiring narratives, an armless archer from Jammu & Kashmir shines brightly.
Born with a rare congenital disorder called phocomelia, causing underdeveloped limbs, Sheetal's journey from the quiet village of Loidhar in Jammu and Kashmir to the international stage of para-archery is a testament to the power of perseverance and self-belief.
