New Delhi [India], May 24: Sometimes, the journey of one individual becomes an inspiration for all of humanity. India’s international para-athlete Pooja Garg has done exactly that — with her unmatched courage, unshakable determination, and deep love for her country, she has created history. Her achievement is not only a matter of national pride, but a shining example on the global stage.
Defeating Both Cancer and Spinal Injury — A Battle Against All Odds
Pooja Garg overcame not one, but two life-altering challenges: a spinal injury and cancer. While recovering from a spinal injury itself is a daunting task, being diagnosed with cancer didn’t deter her — she took it head-on and emerged victorious with unwavering grit.
On World Cancer Day, she raised the Indian tricolour at Nathu La Pass, one of India’s most extreme borders in Sikkim — sending a powerful message of strength, hope, and awareness for cancer fighters everywhere: “I didn’t stop because I wasn’t broken.”
