New Delhi:Dreams have no age and courage has no limits. When intentions become steel then even difficulties leave the way. The country's young shooter Bhakti became an example of this spirit, who made India proud with her accurate aim in the World Championship 2026 held in Changwon, South Korea. Bhakti gave a tough competition to the world's leading shooters on the international stage and won two medals for India. He won the bronze medal in the individual event and the silver medal in the team event. With this achievement, a new chapter was added in Indian sports history.
The body stopped, not the courage.
Bhakti Sharma's story is not just the story of winning a medal but also the story of a fight against many difficulties in front of which people often give up their dreams. Despite difficulties in speaking, hearing and walking, Bhakti had only one dream in his mind to raise the tricolor flag for India. When children of her age spent their time in sports and entertainment, Bhakti would sweat for hours practicing shooting. Be it extreme cold or tiring practice, he never held back his steps. Discipline, continuous hard work and unwavering faith in himself gradually turned his dream into reality.
Two medals, one historic milestone
On the ground of Changwon, Bhakti surprised everyone with his accurate shooting. By winning a medal in the P-2 category, he made a special mark in the history of Indian sports. She also had the distinction of becoming the first Indian player to win a medal for India in this category after independence. When Bhakti's medal adorned his neck on the podium and the tricolor rose with respect, that moment became not only a moment of devotion but also a moment of pride for the entire country.
Father's eyes filled with pride in daughter's victory
Behind this success of Bhakti has been the unwavering support and trust of the family. The daughter who was once a struggle for the family to see moving forward amidst challenges, is today representing the country on the international stage. With the victory of Bhakti, the family's years of hard work, worries, sacrifices and hopes also found their destination. Seeing the tricolor rising high on the international stage was an emotional moment for the family which is difficult to put into words.

After creating history on the world stage, the journey of devotion is not going to stop. Now he has also been selected for the Asian Championship to be held in Japan. That is, the next target and a big challenge – and Bhakti is once again ready to enter the field carrying the tricolor of the country. Bhakti has proved that to reach the destination, the strength of courage is more important than the strength of the body. His story is a ray of hope for millions of youth who leave their dreams unfulfilled due to some obstacle or the other. Devotion is not aimed just at the goal, but at all those notions that measure a person's potential based on his physical limitations. It is said that if you have courage then every obstacle is small, if your aim is firm then every destination is yours.
