The Paralympic movement is governed by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC), founded in 1989, which oversees the participation of athletes with physical, visual, and intellectual impairments. In India, the Paralympic Committee of India (PCI) is the nodal body responsible for the development and promotion of para-sports. The F64 classification under World Para Athletics rules specifically applies to athletes with a lower limb deficiency who compete with a prosthetic.

Remember that while Neeraj Chopra dominates able-bodied javelin events, Sumit Antil is the trailblazer for India in the F64 para-athletics category; both athletes share the common origin of being Haryana-based javelin throwers.
