Khelo India Para Games: A thunderous ovation reverberated across the JLN Stadium weightlifting auditorium as Punjab’s Jaspreet Kaur set a new national record in powerlifting at the Khelo India Para Games 2025.

Competing in the 45kg category, the 30-year-old from Punjab lifted an incredible 101kg on Sunday, surpassing her own previous best of 100kg recorded just a week earlier at the nationals on March 16.

Jaspreet’s journey to the top is nothing short of inspirational. Once an overweight software engineer who graduated from NIT Kozhikode, her mental resilience got her to lose 40kgs as she forayed into the sporting arena.
