The Sports Ministry on Friday granted recognition to Paralympic Committee of India, giving a huge confidence boost to the several para-athletes who have qualified for Rio Paralympics.The ministry's move comes less than a month after the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) announced temporary lifting of suspension imposed on the national body last year so that Indians can take part under the tri-colour in the showpiece event in September. PCI was suspended in April last year due to internal conflicts between different groups and persons, which were undermining the development of Paralympic Movement in India.
