From the wheelchair to the Gold podium

Ekta Bhyan is an extraordinary sportswoman who suffers from paralysis of the lower extremities. She suffered a terrible car accident in 2003 and the injuries to her spine were very serious. The doctors diagnosed her with paralysis of the lower limbs. However, the doctors did not know at the time that this terrible accident would mark the career of a golden girl.

Ekta's rehabilitation was a long and hard process. Her physical condition requires continuous exercises to strengthen the muscles of her upper extremities and stimulate the blood supply to her paralyzed limbs. During this arduous process and after 10 years of the accident she got to know the face of Paralympic sport where tenacity is everything.

In 2014 she met Amit Saroha, a brilliant GoSports Para athlete. Thanks to Saroha, she discovered a universe full of possibilities and her life experienced a 360-degree turn. Ekta went from exercising to maintain good physical condition to becoming an Asian champion in "club throwing" and "discus throwing".
