NEW DELHI: Two young Indian shooters, Palak Gulia and Esha Singh, took centre stage at the Asian Games, clinching gold and silver medals in the highly competitive 10m air pistol event. Their performances have added to India's burgeoning tally in the sport, now standing at an impressive 17 medals, including six golds.
Seventeen-year-old Palak emerged as the star of the day, securing the coveted gold medal with a remarkable score of 242.1 in the finals, establishing an Asian Games record. This victory marks her first major individual medal in international competition, a remarkable feat given her relatively short time in the shooting scene, having joined just last year.
