#WATCH# | Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games 2026 | Nagoya, Japan: On winning a Silver medal in the Men’s Air Rifle event, Indian shooter Rakesh Mane says, "It is definitely an important medal and an important experience for me. It’s a special medal because it’s my first Asian Games medal and my first medal at a senior-level event... There were certainly some difficulties upon arrival, but I think that was normal; organizing and hosting such massive games is no easy task for any nation, so a few hiccups are to be expected. We managed and recovered from that really well. It was shooting that brought in the first medals last year, and it’s shooting bringing in the first medals this time too. So, it definitely feels special to me. I would like to dedicate this to my coach and my parents..."
