'Entire Punjab Takes Pride': Punjab CM Mann Hails Gurindervir Singh After Historic 10.09s NR Run
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann: Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann lauded sprinter Gurindervir Singh after the athlete scripted history at the National Senior Athletics Federation Competition 2026 in Ranchi, becoming the first Indian to breach the 10.10-second barrier in the men's 100m.
Competing at the Birsa Munda Stadium on Saturday evening, Gurindervir clocked a sensational 10.09 seconds in the final to reclaim the national record and cement his place as the fastest Indian ever over the distance. The landmark effort came less than 24 hours after a dramatic exchange of the national mark between Gurindervir and fellow sprinter Animesh Kujur during the semifinals.
Congratulating the 25-year-old, Mann described the achievement as a moment of immense pride for Punjab and Indian athletics.
