Itanagar, Aug 6: In a significant step towards promoting inclusive education and sports, the Paralympic Association of Arunachal (PAA) has facilitated the admission of promising para table tennis player Beti Wallong to Delhi Public School (DPS), Itanagar, where she will continue her education alongside regular sports training.

The Association also expressed gratitude to its Chairman Takam Pario for his unwavering support, visionary leadership and continued commitment towards the welfare, education and development of para athletes across Arunachal Pradesh.
Extending its best wishes to Beti Wallong, the PAA expressed confidence that she would excel in both academics and sports and bring laurels to Arunachal Pradesh and the country through her future achievements.
