Ajeet Singh and Rinku Hooda overcome obstacles to attain glory

We are proudly supporting para-athletes – Ajeet Singh and Rinku Hooda, through Olympic Gold Quest (OGQ), our NGO partner.

Ajeet’s journey to becoming a world champion is nothing short of remarkable. After enduring a life-altering train accident in 2017, which resulted in severe injuries and the amputation of his left hand, Ajeet refused to be defeated by adversity. Just a year later, he found his calling in javelin throw and began his quest for excellence. 

Rinku Hooda’s path to success is equally awe-inspiring. After losing his left arm in a farm accident at the tender age of 3, Rinku grew up facing challenges that would deter most. Yet, nothing could deter him from his passion for hurling the javelin.

They both claimed top honors in the Javelin Throw F46 category at the 2023 World Para Athletics Championships in Paris. Ajeet’s record-breaking throw of 65.41 meters secured him the coveted gold medal, while Rinku’s impressive throw of 65.38 meters earned him a well-deserved silver.

This unparalleled achievement has also earned India a place at the prestigious Paralympics Games 2024 in Paris.

We are rooting for Ajeet Singh and Rinku Hooda, to witness their victory at the World Para Athletics Championship!
