Answers:
The long tradition of Powerlifting in the Paralympics began at the 1964 Paralympic Games in Tokyo under the name "Weightlifting", where only lifters with a spinal cord injury were allowed to compete. Over the next few years, Powerlifting underwent a major transition to include other disability groups and incorporate rules identical to those of Powerlifting competitions for able-bodied. During the General Assembly in Barcelona in 1992, the decision was made to include only "Powerlifting" in the Paralympics rather than "Weightlifting".
