cancel

Haldwani/Uttarakhand: Kerala girl, Sufna Jasmin, made history after winning Kerala’s first gold at the 38th National Games here on Thursday. Her item was weight lifting.

The gold won on the second day of the games, took Kerala’s medal tally to three with two bronzes.

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, PTI reported.

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 the 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.
