barublogA young BA final-year student at Akal College, Khamanon, District Fatehgarh Sahib, born to a labourer father and a homemaker mother, living with 50% paralysis due to Cerebral Palsy. Yet, she’s a warrior, smashing every barrier the world dared to set. Meet Babanpreet Kaur, a para-athlete in the T35/36/37/38 category, whose spirit is unstoppable.
Breaking Barriers, Winning Medals
Babanpreet’s achievements speak louder than words:-
• 3 Silver Medals at the World Ability Sports, Thailand (2023–24 & 2024–25).

• Upcoming milestones – Qualifier for Paralympics 2028 (USA) and preparing to represent India at the World Football League in England.
For someone once told what she “couldn’t do,” her medals are proof of what happens when determination meets opportunity.
A Family’s Strength, A Fighter’s Heart
Behind her victories is a family that believed in her, a father who worked hard as a labourer, a mother who cared tirelessly, and a support system that never let her spirit fade.
Recently, the Smile & Show-Up Foundation recognized her grit with a ₹50,000 reward, a sports kit, and a tribute to Sardar Fauja Singh Ji, reminding the world that champions rise from the humblest beginnings.
