India levelled its medal count at the 2012 London Olympic Games when it won its sixth medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics through Aman Sehrawat, at the Champ de Arena in Paris on Friday.
At the 2012 Games, India had won two silver and four bronze medals, which was then its most successful spell at the Olympics, which it surpassed in Tokyo, three years ago, winning one goal, two silver and four bronze medals.
At the French capital this time around, Aman Sehrawat beat Puerto Rico’s Darian Toi Cruz 13-5 to clinch the sixth medal for India in this edition of the Games. This was India’s third-best performance in the history of Olympics, with it winning one silver and five bronze medals at the 2024 Olympics so far.
