    Asian U20 Athletics Championships: Promising middle distance runner Laxita Vinod Sandilea and low hurdler Shreeya Rajesh won silver and bronze medals, respectively, on the penultimate day of the 21st Asian U20 Athletics Championships being held in Dubai.

    According to information reaching here, Laxita claimed her medal in women's 800m while Shreeya finished on the podium in women's 400m hurdles as India’s overall tally swelled to 15 medals -- five gold, six silver and five bronze medals.

    After a not-so-encouraging morning session, the Indian athletes raised the bar in the evening to make it a productive day for the country. The competition is in progress and more medals are expected at the end of the session. Shreeya Rajesh ran a well-judged pace to sail over the hurdles but eventually settled for a bronze in the women's 400m hurdles with a time of 59.20 seconds. Jeyavindhiya Jegadish finished sixth in the 400m hurdles. Her time was 1:02.06 seconds., the Athletics Federation of India (AFI) informed on Friday.
