Prime Minister Narendra Modi: India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday congratulated Aman Sehrawat for clinching the bronze medal in men's freestyle 57 kg wrestling event at the 2024 Paris Olympics and believes his life story, of overcoming the death of his parents to standing on the podium, is a very inspiring one.

On Friday evening, Sehrawat, who trains and resides at New Delhi’s Chhatrasal Stadium, defeated Puerto Rico's Darian Toi Cruz 13-5 to win the bronze medal at the Champ-de-Mars Arena. It meant India got its first wrestling medal of the Paris Olympics and sixth overall of the ongoing quadrennial event.

“Aman, many congratulations to you and many blessings for your bright future. You have united and filled the hearts of the whole country as per the meaning of your name. There are very few players for whom Chhatrasal Stadium is their home, and you have made it your home and made yourself happy.”
