Aman Sehrawat claims India's fifth bronze at Paris Olympics

My Kolkata congratulates the 21-year-old wrestler on his historic debut

Aman Sehrawat’s dominance was evident as he defeated Darian Cruz from Puerto Rico 13-5, securing India’s 5th bronze medal from Paris. This victory marked India’s first medal in wrestling for the 2024 campaign. At just 21 years old, the wrestler from Birohar, Haryana has etched his name among the greats. Wrestling has always been a strong sport for India, with athletes like Sakshi Malik and Sushil Kumar making their mark on the Olympic stage. Aman is now joining his heroes as India’s latest champion in Paris, following Neeraj Chopra, the Indian men’s hockey team, and the Indian shooters who bagged the  first five medals for the country.

My Kolkata extends its heartfelt congratulations to Aman Sehrawat, who has delivered an exemplary performance on his Olympic debut. We eagerly anticipate his journey to the LA 2028 games, as Aman has already set his eyes on gold for the next Olympics.
