New Delhi: President Ram Nath Kovind and Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu congratulated Praveen Kumar for bagging a silver medal in the Tokyo Paralympics.

The President said that Kumar's silver medal in men's high jump has brought joy to every sport-loving Indian.

Taking to Twitter, the President wrote, "Impressive performance by Praveen Kumar at #Paralympics. Your silver medal in men's high jump with a new Asian record has brought joy to every sport loving Indian. Your success will inspire all budding athletes. Heartiest congratulations. May you keep on achieving new milestones!"

The Vice-President also lauded Kumar for his performance and said that he is an inspiration to many.

"Heartiest congratulations to High Jumper Praveen Kumar for winning a #Silver medal in Men's High Jump T64 event at the Tokyo #Paralympics. The entire nation is proud of him. His phenomenal performance is an inspiration to many. My best wishes for his future endeavours," tweeted the Vice President of India.
