Rambaboo’s reord is the fifth national record set at the Games, and the third in track and field events, after the women’s and men’s pole vault national marks by Rosy Meena Paulraj (Tamil Nadu) and Siva Subramaniam (Services) respectively.
The other two national records were in weightlifting competition. The 35km race walk event was introduced in India only last year in the wake of World Athletics’ decision to do away with the 50km event after the Tokyo Olympics. “I will keep working hard to replicate such time on an international platform too,” Baboo said after the event.
In the weightlifting arena, Uttar Pradesh’s Purnima Pandey overcame a stiff back and clinched gold in the women’s +87kg class. In Rajkot, Gujarat’s leading swimmer Maana Patel dislodged national champion Avantika Chawan (Maharashtra) in the third place in the all-time Indian list behind Shikha Tandon and Kenisha Gupta.
In the badminton events Surat, top-seeded left-hander Malvika Bansod (Maharashtra) quelled the challenge of Unnati Hooda (Haryana) in the women’s singles first round with a 22-20, 21-13 win.
With victories in their respective first round matches, second seed Aakarshi Kashyap (Chhattisgarh) and home favourite Tasnim Mir set up a mouth-watering quarter-final battle.
Meanwhile, Maharashtra’s Arjun Kadhe will meet Manish Suresh Kumar (Tamil Nadu) in the men’s singles final while Gujarat’s Zeel Desai will vie for the women’s singles crown against Karnataka’s Sharmada Balu in the competition at the Riverfront Sports Complex in Ahmedabad.
Congratulations to the winners of the Women 110m Hurdles finals!
