KIUG 2025: Trap Shooter Neeru Dhanda Wins Fourth Straight Gold; Jain University Stays Atop Medals Tally
Neeru, the reigning Asian Shooting Championships gold medallist, clinched her fourth straight individual gold of the Khelo India University Games (KIUG) with a final score of 47 points and also led Guru Nanak Dev University’s complete dominance of the podium as Manisha Keer (39 points) and Nandika Singh (30) bagged the silver and bronze medals, respectively. The trio also won the team gold with a score of 344 points.
Neeru had finished second behind Manisha in the qualifying, but raised her levels in the final. “I was determined to win the gold today, as this is going to be my last Khelo India University Games. I had won the gold in the last three editions of the University Games, and I wanted to end this with another gold medal,” she told SAI Media. Neeru first played in the Khelo India Youth Games back in 2020, when she won a silver medal, and has since then dominated the University Games.
