Paralympic Gold Medallist Nitesh Kumar Honoured as Health Champion of the Year 2024 in Happiest Health's New 'Health Champion' Initiative

Mr Anindya Chowdhury, CEO of Happiest Health - Knowledge and Diagnostics, said, "The 'Health Champion' initiative marks a significant milestone in Happiest Health's journey as we seek to spread our objective further and open up spaces for more people to express themselves. We are looking at collaborating with interested partners in the days ahead while we do so."

Nitesh Kumar added, "While winning the Paralympic gold medal is a big achievement, being inspiring is greatly significant. If my journey can somehow kindle hope for someone overcoming their struggle to do better in life, it would be very fulfilling to me. My message to everyone is to be active physically, whether cycling, running, or walking. Play any sports for recreation and take good care of your health-eat healthy, sleep well, and keep screen time to a minimum."

The initiative will feature two awards-Health Champion of the Quarter and Health Champion of the Year, with the first Health Champion of the Year Awards taking place next year in September. A selection panel will select winners from quarterly submissions based on the nominees' stories' ability to inspire and motivate others. Meanwhile, the jury deciding the Health Champion of the Year for 2025 will validate submissions based on predefined criteria aligned with the event's objectives. Quarterly 'Health Champions' will be automatically eligible for the annual award.

Quarterly winners will receive a certificate of recognition, a monetary prize, a wellness package, and a feature article in the Happiest Health magazine, among other prizes. Annual 'Health Champions' will additionally receive speaking opportunities and media coverage.

Happiest Health is dedicated to giving a voice to the unsung heroes whose stories often go unnoticed. Happiest Health allows individuals to share their experiences of overcoming adversity and inspire others. It has been publishing hundreds of such stories of strength, believing it is its moral and social imperative to give a platform to them. By amplifying people's strength, resilience, and hope, Happiest Health hopes to create a ripple effect of positive change and encourage more health champions and caregivers to come forward and share their inspiring journeys.

Nitesh Kumar's performances at the 2024 Summer Paralympics culminated with him becoming only the country's third para-badminton gold medallist. This accomplishment and his life's journey epitomise the essence of the 'Health Champion' initiative as Happiest Health seeks to recognise similar stories and more.
