The Paralympic Committee of India (PCI) and the Indian Army have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for the engagement of specially-abled soldiers in Paralympic Sports.

As per the MoU, it will inspire and motivate the other fellow soldiers too in their confidence building as they would also have a backup rehabilitation setup in case they get injured / disabled in war or day-to-day national duties, said an official statement from PCI. The MoU was signed by Brigadier Dinesh Sharma, Mission Olympic Cell - Indian Army, and Gursharan Singh, Secretary General PCI.

The press release from the PCI said that the initiative will help in the growth of the paralympic movement and the development of infrastructure for para sports in the country. It will also contribute to the training of para-sportspeople to achieve excellence and produce medal winners for the country at the national and international levels in paralympic sports.

In the 2020 Tokyo Summer Paralympics, India won five gold, eight silver, and six bronze. This has added momentum to India's parasports movement.
