#WATCH | Delhi: On PM Modi's interaction with India's Asian Para Games 2026 contingent, para-athlete Suvarna Raj says, "It was a great experience. We were so excited. He interacted with us.a I also told him that I am a part of Accessible India Campaign (Sugamya Bharat Abhiyan). It felt great that he interacted with everyone..." She also says, "...When the PM of your country encourages you, your willpower further strengthenes. You feel that if he is with you, you too need to do something. From 14 medals in 2014 to 114 medals in 2016 - there is indeed support from him and that is why we could do this. India stood fourth (in Asian Para Games 2026), we will try to bring it to the first position within next 10 years." She further says, "When we won a medal, on the 23rd Delhi Lt Governor had announced that he is appointing me as appointed as Delhi’s State Commissioner for Persons with Disabilities. I have not received an appointment letter yet but I would like to thank Delhi CM Rekha Gupta and LG Sir because in these 3 years I want to do something which would throw open new doors for persons with disabilities in future..."

Delhi: Indian paralympic athlete Suvarna Raj says, "There is no major issue as such. When my medal came on the 22nd, I received news on the 23rd through press releases, and I felt a bit surprised about what had happened. I had given an interview on August 20th, but later I saw it was all over the news. Then I came to know that a press release was issued from the LG office. So thank you so much, I would like to extend my gratitude to the Honorable LG Sir, as well as to the Honorable CM Ma'am, for giving a specially-abled woman the opportunity to become the Disability Commissioner of Delhi. I will strive to do my best. I already work for disabled individuals—I run an academy and actively work on disability policies and the RPWD Act..."
