Some of the notable winners in the Indian contingent were Denic Lalruattluanga from Mizoram, who won gold in the 80kg Right in Men\u2019s Seniors, and Yogesh Chaudhary from Haryana, who bagged gold in the 80kg+ Left and Right in Women\u2019s Seniors.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Denic Lalruattluanga went through a rollercoaster of emotions, losing his first match against Kazakh puller Islam Nurmanov. However, the Mizoram arm wrestler still managed to make it to the final, where he once again had to face Islam Nurmanov. This time around, Denic was confident that he had found a chink in the Kazakh puller\u2019s armour and managed to get the better of him in the finals. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
