The New Indian Express Kottayam
|August 30, 2025
MITHUN Ashok, a 37-year-old from Thiruvananthapuram, has turned his personal health battle into a story of triumph and inspiration.
After receiving a kidney from his sister and undergoing a second transplant, Mithun won a gold medal in dart throwing at the World Transplant Games held in Germany — a moment that not only made the country proud but also sent a powerful message to transplant recipients across the world: life doesn't stop after a transplant — it thrives.
Representing India, Mithun clinched gold in the singles dart event on August 21, defeating Germany's Christopher Bils, the local crowd favourite. His victory was part of India's impressive medal haul at the 25th edition of the Games, where the country secured 57 medals — including 16 gold, 22 silver, and 25 bronze.
