2020 was supposed to be an action-filled year in sports with all eyes on the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games. However, Covid-19 Pandemic brought all action to a grinding halt with events either being postponed or cancelled.
The Parasport action was affected too. In that scenario, the achievements of a few Para athletes and the revocation of the suspension of the Paralympic Committee of India (PCI) remain the high points in Indian Parasports this year.
Among them, Para shuttler Manasi Jos hi’s resurgence stood out this year. Joshi continued to inspire her fellow para sportspersons with her extraordinary achievements one after the other. In a huge shot in her arm, the reigning world champion became the first ever Para athlete to feature in TIME magazine’s 2020 list of Next Generation Leader.
