    Union Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya: Union Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya and the Indian Navy lauded sprinter Gurindervir, who became the first sprinter from the country to breach the 10.10-second barrier in the men’s 100m.

    Gurindervir, 25, entered the record books during the National Senior Athletics Federation Competition 2026 in Ranchi on Saturday. The Punjab’s sprinter representing Reliance clocked 10.09 seconds to reclaim his men’s 100m crown. He first shattered Animesh Kujur's previous national mark of 10.18s by clocking 10.17s in the opening semifinal heat.

    "10.09 seconds! Gurindervir Singh, you have rewritten history. The entire nation is incredibly proud of you!" Mandaviya wrote in an X post.
