The Paralympic Games in the French capital have once again underlined how nothing is out of reach of the human body once it is determined enough. The sporting action in Paris has been phenomenal so far with medal winners bringing out their best to get on the podium. 549 medal events will take place in total and it will be Team China who will finish on top of the podium for the sixth consecutive time.
While the medal winners have definitely looked brilliant, fans have also been inspired by some of the participants.
For India, the Paris Games have been the greatest ever. They did not just surpass their Tokyo tally of 19 medals, but overtook the 25-mark to get 27 medals by Friday.
