New Delhi – The Prime Minister today extended official best wishes to the Indian team preparing for the Asian Para Games 2026 at a special ceremony held at the headquarters of the National Sports Institute (SIS). The ceremony was attended by the President of the Paralympic Committee of India, heads of various sports federations, and the coaches and trainers of more than 150 athletes set to compete in the 2026 Asian Para Games.

Their dedication and resolve inspire people from all sections of the nation.” He appealed to the athletes to compete with “true sporting spirit, discipline and national pride” and said the government is providing every possible facility for their training, infrastructure and medical support.
