India Bags Six Medals at Paris Olympics 2024, One Short of Tokyo Haul

India's Paris Olympics 2024 campaign concluded with a respectable six medals, just one shy of their historic Tokyo 2020 haul. The nation's most successful Olympic outing remains Tokyo 2020, where they secured seven medals.

Manu Bhaker emerged as a shooting star, claiming two bronze medals in the individual and mixed team events. Swapnil Kusale also contributed a bronze in shooting. Neeraj Chopra, the reigning Olympic champion in men's javelin throw, added a silver to his collection. The men's hockey team fought valiantly to secure a bronze medal against Spain. Aman Sehrawat rounded out India's medal tally with a bronze in wrestling.

The possibility of India matching their Tokyo 2020 medal count remains open, pending the outcome of Vinesh Phogat's appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). If successful, she could be awarded a joint silver medal.
