    National Senior Athletics Federation Competition: Tamil Nadu’s 29-year-old international pole vaulter Baranica Elangovan was the cynosure of all eyes on the opening day of the first edition of the National Indoor Athletics Championships at Indoor Stadium in Bhubaneswar, setting a new national record on Tuesday.

    Baranica raised the bar to 4.22m to set a national record in the women’s pole vault. The previous national record of 4.21m was set by Rosy Meena Paulraj in 2022 in Bengaluru.

    “It’s a good day for me to enter my name in the record books,” a jubilant Baranica said in a post-competition interaction. “I’ve been trying hard to cross 4.20m in the past, but Tuesday turned out to be a lucky day for me.”
