A bold step forward by the Archery Association of India
New Delhi | In a landmark move that reshapes the contours of Indian sport, the Archery Association of India has officially introduced the Visually Impaired category in Para Archery. This is a defining moment not just for the sport, but for the spirit of inclusion, belief, and limitless potential.
The inaugural shooting session was held at the Archery Association of India’s headquarters, Yamuna Sports Complex, in Delhi. It was a proud, emotional, and historic moment. It wasn’t just the start of a new category; it was the beginning of a bold shift in how Indian sport defines ability.
“This is not just a new category. It’s a new consciousness,” said Shri Arjun Munda, President of the Archery Association of India.
“With the inclusion of visually impaired athletes, we reaffirm that Indian sport is built not just on talent, but on trust in every athlete’s potential. Archery has always demanded focus. Now, it demands inclusion too. We are proud to lead that change.”
This initiative is not a gesture of goodwill. It is a decisive step forward, powered by the belief that performance, passion, and potential are not bound by sight. It challenges assumptions, redefines what’s possible, and sends a clear message: Indian archery belongs to everyone who has the will to aim, train, and rise.
“This step is a reflection of the Archery Association of India’s long-term vision a sport that welcomes every form of talent,” said Shri Virendra Sachdeva, Secretary General, Archery Association of India.
“We are not just creating access. We are creating a platform where visually impaired athletes can grow, compete, and proudly represent India. Archery must belong to everyone who dares to aim. Today, we move one step closer to that promise.”
The Archery Association of India is committed to building the infrastructure, coaching expertise, and long-term support needed to enable visually impaired athletes to flourish nationally and globally.
This is more than a milestone.
It is a movement.
A statement that Indian sport is evolving: bold, inclusive, and future-ready.
And a declaration that every arrow deserves its flight.
