India's bid for medals at the Paris Olympics 2024 ended in disappointment as archery, badminton, and boxing teams fell short. Despite historic semi-final appearances, the archery team missed out on a medal, finishing fourth in the mixed team event. The badminton contingent returned empty-handed for the first time since 2008, with Lakshya Sen’s bronze medal match loss being a notable setback. Boxing, despite high hopes for Nikhat Zareen and Lovlina Borgohain, also failed to secure any medals due to tough draws and challenging matches. This marks a significant letdown following India’s record-setting performance in Tokyo 2020.
