Will India’s flagbearer Manu Bhaker fly back to Paris for closing ceremony of Olympics 2024?

Manu Bhaker has been named the flag bearer for India at the closing ceremony of the Paris Olympics 2024 for her remarkable performance.

Manu Bhaker, India’s national star, received a grand welcome upon her return after making history at the Paris Olympics 2024 with two bronze medals. She is the first Indian athlete since independence to win two medals in a single edition. As a result, she has been chosen as the flagbearer for India in the closing ceremony. Since her homecoming, questions have arisen about whether she will fly back to Paris for the ceremony.
