It is said that flight happens not with wings but with courage. The same courage that Payal Nag showed. 18 year old Payal Nag won the gold medal by defeating her compatriot and current world champion Shital Devi 139-136 in the World Archery Para Series held in Bangkok. (Photo: PTI)
Of course, by winning the gold medal by defeating Sheetal Devi, Payal Nag has given the countrymen a chance to be happy. But the story of his own life is a tale of pain. When Payal was studying in the third class, she came in contact with electrical wires while playing with her brother on the 5th floor of a newly constructed building. As a result, he lost both his hands and legs due to severe electric shock of 11000 volts. (Photo: PTI)
Seeing the condition of Payal Nag, her relatives advised her father Bijay Kumar Nag and her mother that due to the absence of arms and legs, she would neither be able to eat nor walk. It would be better to poison him. (Photo: PTI)
But, laborer Bijay Kumar Nag, resident of Belangir district of Odisha, did not listen to anyone. She sent her daughter to Parvati Giri Bal Niketan Orphanage, which was run by the district administration. (Photo: PTI)
In the year 2023-24, he took training with Sheetal Devi at Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board Sports Complex, Katra. After making her debut at the national level in 2025, Payal has now written a new story of her success by winning gold in the World Archery Para Series. (Photo: PTI)
