Boxers amassed ten podium finishes, securing seven golds, the most ever for the sport. In judo, Asmita De and Harsh Singh each lifted gold, marking India’s first double‑gold success in this event. Track and field star Gulveer Singh became the nation’s first athlete to win two medals – a silver in the 10,000‑metre race and a bronze in the 5,000‑metre race – setting a new benchmark for Indian athletics.
