Paralympic Medallist Hokato Sema Aims To Surpass 15m Mark At World Para Athletics C’ships
His relentless persistence culminated in a 14.65 metre throw at the Paris 2024 Paralympics, securing India a bronze medal, and he went on to register a personal best of 14.88 metres at the Indian Open in Bengaluru, further boosting his reputation as one of the nation’s most inspiring para athletes.
Speaking about his journey and preparation, Hokato said, “After losing my leg, I used to hide my stump because I was ashamed. Now I wear shorts everywhere. If people stare, I let them. Today, I have put all that energy into my training. I spent hours every day working on strength and conditioning, fine-tuning my technique, and repeating drills until they felt perfect.”
