Singhraj Adhana after winning the Bronze at the Tokyo Paralympics 2020.After winning a medal at the 2020 Tokyo Paralympics, Singhraj, during a media interaction, talked about his strategies and success in the Paralympics. He said My coaches suggested doing meditation to overcome the mistakes which I did in the qualification. I did meditation for 5 minutes and it helped. This result is because of a better team that is with me..He was diagnosed with Polio in his lower limbs at an age of one due to an overreaction of an injection that he was administered for fever, resulting in his disability, but it didnt hinder him to further his shooting journey, which started in 2017 at an age of 35. According to Singhraj, he was inspired to make a career in athletics/sports after visiting a swimming club in Faridabad where he used to take his sons for swimming lessons. Reportedly, before choosing air-pistol shooting, he wanted to become a professional swimmer. At Singhraj Adhanas house after his bronze medal at Tokyo Paralympics 2020.Coming from a financially unstable background, he had to undergo a lot of struggle to fulfill his dreams and help his family make ends meet. He travelled 40 Kilometre every day from his home to the shooting range to practice the sport. During an interaction with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he revealed that his wife had to sell her jewellery to realize his shooting dreams. He also said,.His grandfather, the Late Subedar Major Sumera Ram Adhana, was a freedom fighter who fought for Indias Independence against the Britishers.

Singhraj Adhanas grandfather Late Subedar Major Sumera Ram Adhana.His first medal was at the national level in 2018 when he bagged the bronze at the Para Asian Games. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he continued his passion for air-pistol shooting, and with the help of the Paralympic Committee of India (PCI), he started a shooting range for himself at his home. He talked about this in a media interaction. He said, As I was not able to train, I started thinking that my dream of winning a medal is over. Thats when my coaches suggested why not try building a range at home. My mother only asked me to ensure that we are able to feed ourselves later on if something went wrong. But thanks to my family and coaches support, the green signal and help from the Paralympic Committee of India and NRAI, we succeeded in my mission and the range was soon up and running, he added.The following year i.e 2019, was the golden phase in his life when he won Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals in different categories at the 62nd National Shooting Championships in Kerala. Apart from that, the same year, he also bagged a medal at the 2019 World Shooting Para Sports Championships in Sydney.Apart from his sports activities, Singhraj actively participates in several social programs like the education of the poor and underprivileged disabled people.He runs the Singhraj Sainik School in Faridabad, near Delhi, and he is also the chairman of the school.
