India's medal tally reached 24 in the ongoing Paris Paralympics with Harvinder Singh topping Day 7 with a first-ever Gold medal in archery for the country (across the Olympics and Paralympics). This is already the highest-ever medal tally for the Indian contingent at the Paralympics but it can add a little more to its tally even further on Thursday, September 5 with as many as six of them up for grabs.
Harvinder will be in action again, this time in the mixed team event along with Pooja in the recurve open while Sidhartha Babu and Mona Agarwal will be in action in para shooting mixed 50m rifle prone event, first in the qualification round and then hopefully in the running for the medal in the final. Several other athletes will be in action across events in shot put and running. Take a look at the full schedule-
