PUNE/KOLHAPUR: It's been over two months since Swapnil Kusale won a bronze medal at Paris Olympics, but the shooting champion says he is yet to hear officially about any reward from state govt.
Swapnil had clinched bronze in the men's 50m rifle 3 Position event at the Paris Games on Aug 1. With this bronze, Swapnil became the only second athlete from Maharashtra to win an individual medal at the Olympics. The first athlete to win an individual medal, also a bronze, was wrestler Khashaba Jadhav at the 1952 Helsinki Games. Swapnil's medal came after 72 years.
