Neeraj Chopra made history at the Paris 2024 Olympics, winning a silver medal in the men's javelin with a throw of 89.45 meters. This achievement makes him the first Indian track-and-field athlete to win medals at consecutive Olympics, following his gold at Tokyo 2020. Neeraj now joins an elite group of Indians with multiple individual Olympic medals, including Sushil Kumar and P.V. Sindhu. Despite his strong performance, Pakistan's Arshad Nadeem claimed gold with a record-breaking 92.97-meter throw, marking Pakistan's first Olympic medal since 1992.
