Indian Shooting Stars Celebrate Olympic Day, Hope For Continued Success At 2028 LA Games
At the Paris Games last year, India sent a 21-member contingent to compete across all 15 events in shooting. Manu Bhaker created history in Paris, winning two medals in the women's 10m air pistol event and 10m air pistol mixed team event along with Sarabjot Singh, becoming the only Indian athlete to win two medals in a single Olympic edition.
Meanwhile, Swapnil Kusale also created history, earning India's only Olympic medal in men's 50m rifle 3 positions. With the shooting contingent bagging three out of six medals for India at the 2024 Olympics, the popularity of the sport surged across the nation, with the athletes gaining widespread recognition all around the globe.
