<p>India has not had as successful a campaign at the Paris Olympics as it had four years back in Tokyo with Neeraj Chopra winning a gold as well. India secured 7 medals in the games, which is the nation's most successful campaign, with 2 silvers and 4 bronze medals and an Olympic gold medal from the unstoppable Neeraj Chopra. <br> <br>Neeraj Chopra has been in the buzz since 2016 when he won the junior division world championship; following him came several opportunities, fame, and also immense media attention. However, all went cold after a few days, though Neeraj did not seem the athlete who could give up his passion for the game only for offered government jobs. <br> <br>After that, he struggled but remained determined, and his efforts paid out loud. Let?s take a look at all the medals won by Neeraj Chopra aside from his triumph in the Tokyo Olympics with a gold. </p>

<p> <br>India?s other big update is in 50kg women?s freestyle wrestling, as India?s Vinesh Phogat defeated Tokyo Olympics gold medalist <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yui_Susaki">Yui Susaki</a> of Japan to enter the quarterfinals. This is itself something great that has been acquired by the Indian wrestler while she will be back in action for the semifinal round after she secured a win against Ukrainian wrestler Oksana Livach in the Quarter-final.  </p>
