Aman Sehrawat Wins Bronze Medal at Olympics

News summary

Aman Sehrawat, at just 21 years old, has made history as India's youngest Olympic medallist by winning a bronze in men's wrestling at the Paris 2024 Olympics. He achieved this after a strenuous overnight weight loss effort, shedding 4.6 kg to meet competition requirements, reflecting the intense pressure following Vinesh Phogat's controversial disqualification.

His victory not only adds to India's medal tally but also symbolizes hope and determination in the face of challenges. Aman dedicated his medal to his late parents, honoring their dreams for him to excel in wrestling.
