IIE DIGITAL DESK: On the sixth day of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, Indian shooter Swapnil Kusale secured a bronze medal in the men's 50m rifle three positions event. Kusale's remarkable performance earned him a spot on the podium, showcasing his precision and skill. His achievement marks a significant milestone for Indian shooting at these Games.

However, it was a challenging day for fellow Indian shooters Anjum Moudgil and Sift Kaur Samra. Both athletes fell short of advancing to the top eight in their respective events. Moudgil, competing in the women's 50m rifle three positions, and Samra, participating in the women's 50m rifle prone, struggled to find their rhythm, ultimately missing out on medal contention.

The Indian shooting team’s mixed results underscore the high level of competition at the Olympics. While Kusale's bronze is a testament to his dedication and talent, the outcomes for Moudgil and Samra highlight the unpredictable nature of the Games. As the Olympics progress, the focus shifts to other events and the ongoing quest for more medals.However.
