Paris Olympics 2024
What else can be a prouder moment for India than this. Say hurrah!! and cheer up as India has won the 2nd medal at Paris Olympics 2024. Also, it’s a lovely moment for Manu Bhaker, who has created history after winning two medals in a single edition of the Olympic Games.

Her second win is obviously a team victory and the credit goes to Sarabjot Singh as well. At this very special occasion, Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to X and congratulated the winners saying, “Congratulations to @realmanubhaker and Sarabjot Singh for winning the bronze medal in the 10m Air Pistol Mixed Team event at the #Olympics. Both of them have shown great skills and teamwork. India is incredibly delighted.”

Reacting over the victory, Sarabjot said, “It feels great. The game was tough, but glad we could do it.” While Manu said, “I feel really proud and a lot of gratitude… It is just blessings. Thanks for all the blessings and love. We can only control what is in our hands. I had a chat with my father regarding this and decided to keep fighting till the last shot.” No Indian athlete has ever won two medals in a single Olympics. However, several Indian athletes have won two medals in different Olympics.
It is to be noted that Manu Bhaker won the bronze medal in the 10m air pistol event on the second day of the Paris Olympics, i.e., on July 27. With this medal, Manu became the first female shooter from India to win a medal in shooting.
It is really a great moment for both Manu and Sarabjot
