Nepali Paralympian medalist Palesha Goverdhan, 21 (center), along with her coach (right), is showered with flower petals while being welcomed upon her arrival from the Paris Paralympics 2024 to Kathmandu on September 4, 2024. On August 31, Goverdhan defeats Marija Micev of Serbia 15-8 in the bronze medal match of the women's K44 under 57 kg weight category taekwondo competition, becoming the first athlete from Nepal to win a Paralympic medal. Nepal has never won an official medal at the Summer Games in its 60-year Olympic history, not considering Bidhan Lama's bronze in the exhibition taekwondo event at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul and the gold presented to Tejbir Bura at the 1924 Winter Olympics in Chamonix, France, for his alpinism effort as part of the 1922 British Mount Everest expedition. Neither medal is officially recognized by the International Olympic Committee. Nepal makes its first Paralympics debut at the 2004 Summer Paralympics in Athens, sending Nirmala Gyawali in the women's shot-put event. Jit Bahadur Khadka is the second athlete to participate at the Paralympic Games. He competes in the men's 100m at the 2008 Summer Paralympics. Para taekwondo athlete Goverdhan in the Tokyo Olympics is near to winning a bronze medal but fails. Three years later, she conquers her dream for a historic bronze for the Himalayan nation.
