It all started with Manu Bhaker clinching a bronze in the women's individual 10m air pistol final in the Paris Olympics Games 2024. The young pistol shooter opened India's account on the medals tally, before combining with Sarabjot Singh in the mixed team 10m air pistol event to bag another bronze. On Day 6 of the Paris Games, Swapnil Singh took the tally to three medals, bagging the country's first medal ever in the men's 50m Rifle 3-Positions final, a bronze. In the process, the shooters earned India a big first in the 2024 edition of the Olympic Games.
