KIYG 2025: Jithin Arjunan Leads Pack Of Five Boys In Rewriting Meet Records
Khelo India Youth Games: Jithin Arjunan of Tamil Nadu led a group of determined boys who broke five Games Records on the opening day of athletics competitions in the Khelo India Youth Games (KIYG) 2025 Bihar at the Patliputra Sports Complex here on Monday.
Bihar’s Alka Singh won an emotional gold for the home state in the girls' Shot Put with her second attempt measuring 14.73m to share some of the gloss with the record-breaking boys.
Jithin Arjunan broke the existing boys' Long Jump mark three times and added a silver in the 110m Hurdles to be the standout performer of the day, just ahead of Rajasthan discus thrower Hansraj Dhayal. With a heave of the discus over 63.18m, Hansraj Dhayal surprised team-mate Vishal Kumar and Haryana’s Nischay, who won a bronze medal in the Asian Youth Championships last month.
