"Our Paralympic athletes are bringing pride to the nation in Paris. I am pleased to announce that we have won a total of six gold, nine silver, and twelve bronze medals, bringing our total to 27 so far. With more events still to be held today, there is a possibility of winning additional medals. At the Tokyo Paralympics, we won 19 medals. Now, we have reached 27," said Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya to IANS.
