In a remarkable feat of determination, India's para-athlete, Sheetal Devi, was honored with the prestigious Arjuna Award by President Droupadi Murmu. Born without hands in a strife-ridden village, Sheetal's journey from adversity to triumph is truly inspiring. Adopted by 11 Rashtriya Rifle Northern Comd in 2019, with the unwavering support of Meghna Girish and Anupam Kher, she received artificial limbs. Guided by coach Kuldeep Baidwan, Sheetal secured two golds and one silver at the Asian Para Games 2022, showcasing exceptional prowess in archery. Now a symbol of strength, her aspirations extend to claiming Olympic gold, making Sheetal Devi an inspiring national icon.
