The athletics arena also witnessed history on the track, where Vithya Ramraj secured a bronze medal in the women’s 400m hurdles by shattering PT Usha’s legendary 42-year-old national record with a timing of 54.75 seconds. Parul Chaudhary rounded out the track success with a gritty bronze in the women’s 5000m final.
Shooting brought further drama when Esha Singh fought through a tense double shoot-off in the women’s 25m pistol individual final, ultimately settling for a hard-earned silver medal.
