The Literature of Grit: Reading the Rise of the Paralympics
The Morning Standard
|October 06, 2025
SOME stories are not just to be read: they are to be lived, felt, and passed on.
The world of the Paralympics offers such stories in abundance. If sport is the purest distillation of the human spirit, then para-sport is its most poetic expression - often painful, often invisible, but always unforgettable.
We live in a country that has long overlooked the stories of people with disabilities. But that tide is turning, slowly yet powerfully. Today, India is not only witnessing the rise of para-athletes but is also learning to celebrate their journeys. Not as side notes to the 'mainstream' but as epic narratives that deserve centrestage.
