At the 2024 Paris Olympics, India sent a delegation of 116 athletes to participate in 69 events and compete for 95 medals. However, as of August 11, 2024, India has only won 1 silver and 5 bronze medals, with 0 gold medals, ranking 69th on the medal table. The specific awards are as follows:
Silver medal:
Men's Javelin Throw in Athletics: On August 9, Indian athlete Neeraj Chopra won the silver medal in this event with a throw distance of 89.45 meters.
Bronze medals:
Men's Freestyle Wrestling 57kg: On August 10, Indian athlete Aman Sehrawat defeated Darien Toy Cruz with a score of 13-5 and won the bronze medal in this event.
Men's Hockey: The bronze medal of this event was awarded on July 29. The Indian team, as one of the participating teams, tied with the German team for the bronze medal.
Men's 50m Rifle 3 Positions: On August 1, in the final of this event, Indian athlete Kumar Rai won the bronze medal with a score of 445.1.
Mixed Team 10m Air Pistol: On July 27, the Indian pair Shweta Singh/Saurabh Chaudhary lost to the Chinese pair Jiang Ranxin/Zhang Bowen with a score of 10-16 in the gold medal battle of this event and won the bronze medal.

India won a total of 6 medals at the 2024 Paris Olympics, including 1 silver and 5 bronze medals, with 0 gold medals. For this country with a population of over 1.4 billion and the world's fastest-growing economy, such results are indeed somewhat embarrassing. Among them, what's more regrettable is the final of Women's Freestyle Wrestling 50kg. Indian athlete Vinesh Phogat was disqualified hours before the game due to being 100 grams overweight, missing the chance to win the gold medal.
