My Didi in Jorhat runs a small tea stall near the disabled school, and last month she told me how one of the blind boys timed his own sprint with a bamboo stick tapping the track edge. They didn’t have a guide runner or proper lane markings, but he insisted on the exact distance. I’ve been thinking, bhaiti—if we want classification to be fair, shouldn’t we start by asking the athletes what they actually need measured, not what the rulebook assumes? The data from their own practice tells more than any committee’s guess.
