"Paris 2024 Will Be Ultimate Test": Anush Agarwalla On Olympics Dream
The only current Olympic event that involves an animal is equestrianism. In ancient Olympics, chariot races and horse racing used to be part of the program. Horses continue to remain in focus and this year at the Paris Olympics in July-August, an Indian, for the first time ever, will represent the nation in the dressage event. The 24-year-old Anush Agarwalla will carry the hopes of a billion when he straddles an equine at the Chateau de Versailles in Paris. Horses are entwined in almost every chapter of India's rich history. In Mahabharata, Arjun's chariot was drawn by four white horses.
