Length and date fine. Hook fact is currently not cited directly after it appears and I'd say that a more interesting hook would be that his win led to a ban on disabled athletes competing in able bodied events. If you can add the name of the relevent federation then I'd suggest

ALT1 ... that 2012 Indian Paralympic powerlifter Farman Basha won an event for non-disabled athletes in 2006, leading to a ban on disabled athletes in Indian Powerlifting Federation events?

-This of course assumes that the source (which I can't) see backs up that hook. Waiting on the QPQ as well - Basement12 (T.C) 15:26, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

It's Indian Powerlifting Federation, thanks for a review and suggesting hook. — Bill william compton^Talk 17:17, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

Now ready to go with ALT1 - Basement12 (T.C) 13:47, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
