Narmada shoots down NR to win 10 air rifle gold
The New Indian Express Kochi
|January 31, 2025
TAMIL Nadu's former World Cup-winning shooter Narmada Nithin Raju outgunned her more fancied rivals to win the 10m air rifle gold with a national record, even as Karnataka continued to top the medal tally with another strong show in the swimming pool at the National Games here Thursday.
The 23-year-old Narmada beat the likes of Asian Games medallist Ramita Jindal and Olympian Elavenil Valarivan as she shot 254.4 to create a national record but missed equalling the world mark by a fraction of a point on her way to gold.
Karnataka picked up a gold and a silver in swimming as well as a yellow metal in men's road cycling event on Thursday to accumulate 12 medals (7 gold, 3 silver, 2 bronze) and cling to the top position.
Manipur was closing in on second place with 11 medals (6 gold, 5 silver) after picking a gold each in wushu and triathlon on Thursday.
