Game on. Paralympic Games begin in Paris

The stage is set in Paris for the grand Summer Paralympic Games. More than 4,000 athletes from around the world, including our Indian champions, are ready to make their mark. Indian athletes have consistently participated in every Summer Paralympics since 1984, although their official debut on this global stage was in 1968. The first official Paralympic Games were held in Rome in 1960. Twenty-three nations took part, competing in eight sports, including wheelchair basketball and para-athletics. Today's image takes us to an icon of Parisian life: the Sacré-Cœur Basilica in the Montmartre neighbourhood. Completed in 1914, the church stands at the top of one of the highest points in Paris. It offers impressive views over the city, taking in the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame, the Panthéon and much more. If you're in Paris to enjoy the Paralympics, it's the perfect spot to soak up the beauty of the host city.
