'Believe in yourself, follow your dreams’: Paralympics gold medallist Nitesh Kumar
New Delhi, Sep 27 Paris Paralympics gold medallist para-shuttler Nitesh Kumar, who studied from the Navy Childrens School in Vizag, has thanked the school and credited them as they uplifted him "during his toughest times".
India won five medals one gold, two silver, and two bronze, country's most in any edition of the Paralympic Games, and secured podiums in the women’s events for the first time at the recently concluded event in Paris.
"A message for the students, stay focused, work harder, don’t focus on succuss but rather on your growth, believe in yourself and go follow your dreams. I really look forward to visiting the school soon and celebrate this victory with you,” he added.
"It is the ultimate gratification for me as a teacher, when a student who has achieved something incredible, remembers the minuscule role I played in his success. This feeling cannot be compared to anything else in this world," said Nikita Tomar Mann, who headed the NCS Vizag from 2010-2016 when Kumar was there. She is now Principal at Indraprastha Global School in Noida
