Ashish Yadav won a silver medal in the javelin throw at the World U20 Championships, marking India's first medal in the event since Neeraj Chopra's gold 10 years ago.
The achievement follows a decade-long wait for an Indian athlete to reach the podium in this specific discipline at the global junior level.
The performance was highlighted by the TOI Sports Desk as a significant milestone in Indian athletics, ending a 10-year drought in the javelin category.
