The Indian contingent made history by securing their first medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics on Sunday. Now, they are determined to add more medals to their tally on Monday and aim to reach double digits in total.

Ramita Jindal will be participating in the women’s 10m air rifle finals at 1:00 PM IST, while Arjun Singh Babuta will be competing in the men’s 10m air rifle finals at 3:30 PM IST.
