The Summer Olympics in Paris concluded recently, Where India had a tough campaign finishing with 6 medals in total 5 Bronze and 1 Silver. For Indians, this Olympics wasn't a great sight to remember as many Indian athletes who had the chance to win a medal for their country eventually fell short at the final hurdle.
From Lakshya Sen, and Ankita-Dhiraj to Manu Bhaker missing a third medal to eventually witness the heartbreak of Vinesh Phogat absolutely ensured that this Olympics was nothing short of a nightmare. Amidst the gloomy skies, the Indian Hockey team, Manu Bhakar, Neeraj Chopra, Aman Sehrawat, Sarabjot Singh, and Swapnil Kusale brought much relief and joy to the Indian fans in Paris and also back home.
Now, it is time to turn attention towards the Paralympics which are scheduled to begin in 12 days.
