    Khlo India Youth Games: Harsabardhan Sahu and Jyoshna Sabar won the gold medals with new national youth records on the first day of the weightlifting competitions in the Khelo India Youth Games 2025 Bihar in Rajgir as Maharashtra maintained their position atop the medal table with twice as many gold medals as their nearest rival.

    But the stars of the day were Harsabardhan Sahu, Asmita Dhone, who do not believe in resting on their laurels. Barely 10 days after winning medals for India in the World Youth Weightlifting Championships in Lima, Peru, they showcased their world-class skills to an appreciative audience at the Rajgir Sports Complex, claiming a gold each for Odisha on Saturday.

    Harsabardhan Sahu, a Khelo India Athlete from Ganjam district who will turn 16 on May 22, doubled his joy with two National Youth Records to boot in the boys' 49kg class competition. He rewrote the National Youth records for Clean and Jerk and Total with lifts of 115kg and 203kg, respectively, after an 88kg lift in Snatch. The previous records were set by Jharkhand’s Babulal Hembrom last year.
