As of September 28, India has won a total of 22 medals which includes five gold, seven silver and ten bronze.
The Asian Games or the Asiad is in full swing and the Indian contingent has performed exceptionally well in the continental showpiece. Added to that, India has also sent a very strong and large contingent to uphold the motto of “abki baar 100 paar” (this year we will cross the 100 medal mark). India has sent a strong contingent of 665 athletes.
India’s Sift Kaur Samra broke the World Record and won gold in the women’s 50m rifle 3 Positions event at the Asian Games on Day 4. Ashi Chouksey also bagged a bronze in the event to bring India’s shooting medal to eight. Likewise, Anant Jeet Singh Naruka won the individual men’s skeet medal. The fourth gold and 16th medal of the Asian Games came for India in the 25 m pistol event. However, the bad news is that India slipped to seventh place in the medals tally. As of now, the total tally stands at 22 medals. This includes five gold, seven silver and ten bronze.
