The contingent comprising 148 male and 52 female athletes are in fine form to compete for honours in their games.

The team will be participating in 15 different sports including para table tennis, sitting volleyball, wheelchair basketball, para-athletics, amputee football, para shooting and para-swimming.

Others are para soccer, para canoeing, para-cycling, wheelchair tennis, para powerlifting, para taekwondo, para karate and para badminton.
