    Khelo India Youth Games: Karnataka’s Anushka Thokur and West Bengal’s Adriyan Karmakar comfortably clinched the girls and boys 50m Rifle 3-position gold medals respectively in the 6th Khelo India Youth Games 2023 at the Guru Nanak College shooting range here on Thursday.

    Anushka, who shifted to shooting a few years ago after being a competitive swimmer, scored 10 points more than second placed Melvina Angeline J of Tamil Nadu to win the gold medal with a score of 460.8. Prachi Gaikwad of Maharashtra took the bronze with a score of 439.6.

    She had qualified for the final in second position but raised the bar in the final, taking a comfortable lead after the kneeling and prone series and then maintained that advantage to bag Karnataka’s first gold medal of this edition of the Games.
