“Delighted to announce that every Olympic medalist from Team India will be gifted an MG Windsor, a remarkable car from JSW MG India! Because our best deserve the best, for their dedication and success,” Jindal posted.
India have so far bagged three medals at the quadrennial event in the French capital city, all three bronze.
All the medals have come from the shooting unit as Manu Bhaker, Sarabjot Singh and Swapnil Kusale brought laurels to the nation.
Bhaker got the Indian contingent’s medal tally off the mark with her sterling performance in the Women’s individual 10m Air Pistol event as she bagged the bronze medal with a sterling performance.
She scripted history as she doubled her tally when she picked up yet another bronze alongside Sarabjot in the 10m Mixed Team Air Pistol event. Bhaker became the first Indian woman to claim two medals in a single edition of the Olympics. Sarabjot, who battled off an injury scare to claim the podium place, was crucial in the accomplishment.
Kusale, rewrote the history books as he finished third in the final of the Men’s 50m Rifle 3 position event to pick up the nation’s first-ever medal in the particular event.
The 117-strong Indian contingent is expected to notch up more medals before the end of the sporting spectacle in Paris.
