India has also sent its largest contingent to the Asian Games 2023 in which 655 players will participate in 39 events. The inauguration ceremony was held on Saturday itself in which hockey player Harmanpreet Singh and boxer Lovlina Borgohain were the flag bearers. Although these games were to be organized last year, due to COVID-19 they are being organized this time.

India's history in the Asian Games:

Meanwhile, India has not been able to finish in the top five in the medal table since the 1986 Seoul stage and is trying to reach there. Although 100 medals may not be possible, India would like to build on the medals tally from the previous edition, with athletics once again expected to contribute the most. Last time, track and field players won 20 medals. This time in Asian Games 2023 they are hoping to achieve 25 podium positions.

In addition, the Indian team for the Asian Games has the honour of having five athletes who have won medals in the Olympics. The team is led by Neeraj Chopra, the Olympic and World Champion. Other notable athletes in the team include Mirabai Chanu, who has won an Olympic medal in weightlifting, PV Sindhu, a renowned badminton player, Bajrang Punia, a wrestler, and Lovlina Borgohain, a boxer.

Earlier, India had won 16 gold medals in the 2018 Asian Games, which was its best performance so far in these games. But in the Asian Games 2023, the number of gold may be less. Badminton player PV Sindhu is not in form, while weightlifter Mirabai Chanu is struggling with fitness. Meanwhile, wrestler Bajrang Punia started training a few months ago due to his participation in the wrestlers' protest. The highest hopes for gold are from Neeraj and boxer Lovlina.

India in the Asian Games 2023:

India are having a great success so far at the Asian Games 2023, winning a total of 62 medals. Out of these, there are 13 gold medals, 24 silver medals, and 25 bronze medals.
