Last Asian Games: Ramraj Vithya dedicated India’s silver medal in the 4x400m mixed relay at the 2026 Asian Games to her twin sister, saying she missed her presence this time and was determined to change the colour of her medal after winning three medals at the previous edition.

The Indian quartet of Machettira Poovamma, Vishal Thennarasu, Vithya and Thekkinalil Manu clocked 3:14.46 to finish second behind Bahrain, which won gold in a Games-record 3:12.87. Vietnam narrowly missed out on silver after finishing third in 3:14.54.

Vithya, who had won three medals at the previous Asian Games, said she entered the competition with the aim of improving on her earlier medal tally.
