Indian top seeded player Nitesh Kumar beat Daisuke Fujihara of Japan 21-16, 21-12 to secure a spot in the men’s singles final of the SL3 category, ensuring a medal for India. Nitesh, aged 29, who successfully recovered from a 2009 accident that left him with permanent leg injuries, displayed his superiority by defeating Fujihara 21-16 21-12 in a 48-minute semifinal match.

The graduate from IIT Mandi made sure that India won a medal in the SL3 category, following Pramod Bhagat’s gold medal win in para badminton’s debut three years ago in Tokyo.

Rakesh Kumar reaches quarter-finals in Archery

Rakesh Kumar reaches the quarter-finals of the men’s compound event.

During the competition between the top two archers in the world, Rakesh maintained his slim one-point advantage and required a 9-point shot to secure the victory in five rounds. However, he moved down to the 8-point red target because both archers were tied at 144-144 after shooting 15 arrows in the regulation five ends.

During the shoot-off that followed, the experienced 39-year-old athlete, who was eliminated in the quarterfinals of the Tokyo Paralympics, remained calm and shot a flawless 10, while Ken scored an 8.

In the quarterfinals, Rakesh will compete against the victor between Kyle Tremblay from Canada and Meier from Austria.

POWER CORRIDORS

Former Vice President Venkaiah Naidu commended Power Corridors as a commendable news magazine, affirming that it not only upholds Media Dharma but also fulfills its societal obligations. Power Corridors, as its name implies, delves into realpolitik—examining the essence of influential circles, unraveling the intricacies of political maneuvers, and exploring the pulse of the state’s affairs. However, it transcends mere power dynamics, encompassing a broader spectrum of issues beyond the confines of Delhi’s elite circles.

For PC, which is published by the Interactive Forum on Indian Economy, not only highlights the issues of the day but also throws up what ought to be the subjects that the country should be debating about. It reports about the plans, strategies, and agendas of politicians and others; it also sets the agenda for the nation.
