It was a fantastic monopolistic show that India put up in the Paris 2024 Olympics; here India won 6 medals in total, out of which 1 was silver and the rest 5 were bronze. These victories were across various sports, and it was a young India that proved itself in the international arena. Some of the athletes, including Neeraj Chopra in athletics and the men’s hockey team, enhanced the pride of the nation.   

Neeraj Chopra: The heptathlete won silver in the heptathlon event for women, and Aldrin’s super actor won silver in the men's javelin event, making him the first to win both gold and silver at the Olympics. 

Manu Bhaker & Sarabjot Singh: Manu Bhaker won two bronze medals, one in the women’s 10-meter air pistol shooting event and another in the mixed team 10-meter air pistol event, along with Sarabjot Singh. 

Swapnil Kusale: Next big achiever of shooting, Swapnil Kusale bagged bronze in the men’s 50m rifle three-position event. 

India Men’s Hockey Team: The men’s hockey team also sustained their Olympic performance and clinched the bronze medal this time, and they had earlier also secured the bronze medal in the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. 

Aman Sehrawat: The wrestler Aman Sehrawat, who is only 21 years old, won bronze for India in the men’s freestyle 57 kg wrestling competition, thus setting the record of being the youngest wrestler to bring home an Olympic medal for the nation.  This medal tally in Paris 2024 reflects the Indian participation that has slowly and steadily been striding into the world map of sports. 

Medal Count:  Silver: 1  Bronze: 5
