Paris Olympics 2024: India made history at the Tokyo Olympics, sending their largest-ever team of 124 athletes and winning their highest medal count in a single edition with seven medals. Neeraj Chopra won a historic gold in men's javelin throw. At the upcoming Paris Olympics, the spotlight will again be on Neeraj as he aims to defend his title.
In shooting, India faced drama over Olympic quotas. Trap shooter Bhowneesh Mendiratta earned India's first Paris 2024 quota at the 2022 ISSF World Championships but did not make the final team after national trials. Instead, Prithviraj Tondaiman was given the quota in the category. For the first time, India secured a quota in every Olympic shooting category.
Race walkers Priyanka Goswami and Akshdeep Singh were the first Indians to qualify for athletics events at Paris 2024. Four Indian athletes met the qualifying standard for the men's 20km walk, with one making the cut through world rankings. Each national federation can send a maximum of three athletes per event, so Akshdeep, Vikash, and Paramjeet Singh were selected, while Ram Baboo and Suraj Panwar missed out. Priyanka and Akshdeep also earned a quota for India in the mixed relay marathon race walk event, but Suraj will partner Priyanka in Paris.
In women's 57kg boxing, Parveen Hooda originally secured the quota at the 2023 Asian Games but was suspended for whereabouts failures. Jasmine Lamboria then secured the quota at the Olympic qualifiers in Bangkok in June.
