An ecstatic Paralympic Committee of India (PCI) president Deepa Malik said that the unprecedented 19 medals will ensure more accent on youth programmes to unearth quality para talent in coming years.

“We will shortlist important qualifying international events. The Youth Asian Para Games are coming in Bahrain. We also have to start working with the U-20, the younger brigade,” Malik said at a virtual press conference facilitated by PCI and Eurosport.
