Shooter Manu Bhaker opened India's medal tally at the Paris 2024 Olympics, making history by securing third place in the women's individual 10m air pistol event. She became the first-ever woman shooter from India to win an Olympic medal, adding a significant milestone to her already illustrious career. In Paris, Bhaker secured two bronze medals in the shooting events, becoming the first Indian athlete in the post-independence era to achieve this feat in a single edition of the Olympics. This remarkable accomplishment was held by Norman Pritchard, who won two medals at the 1900 Paris Games.
Manu Bhaker scripted history at the Paris Olympics 2024 as she became the first Indian woman shooter to win an Olympic medal for India. Following her bronze medal win in the women's individual 10m air pistol event, she cemented her place in history by claiming a second bronze medal in the 10m Air Pistol Mixed Team event with Sarabjot Singh. However, controversy ensued when she was not considered for the Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna award. While she took to social media to say that there were some 'lapses' on her part while filing the nomination, her father - Ram Kishan Bhaker - believes that there should not be an application process for these awards as it is an honour being bestowed by the government.
Manu Bhaker, double Olympic medallist , is in news after reports claimed the champion shooter's name was missing from the list of nominated athletes for the Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna Award. The Khel Ratna is awarded to athletes with exceptional performances. With Manu's name missing, despite being the first Indian athlete since independence to win two Olympic medals in a single edition of the Games, the Sports Ministry came under scrutiny. However, Manu Bhaker has now said that there might have been a lapse on her part and that 'it is being corrected.'
India shooter Manu Bhaker's twin medals at the Paris Olympic Games were apparently deemed not good enough for her to earn Khel Ratna Nomination. As the reported 30-athlete list came out, the ace shooter's name was nowhere to be seen despite her historic accomplishments at the Paris Games. Manu Bhaker's father Ram Kishan was left fuming with the development, as he lashed out at the sports ministry, and government officials for leaving out his daughter's name from the list despite claiming that an application was submitted.
