Indian Archers Win Historic Asian Games Recurve Gold

Three Indian archers named Ankita, Kumkum and Kirti won a big gold medal.

They competed in the women’s recurve team event at the Asian Games.

India beat the strong South Korean team 5-2 in the final.

This was India’s first gold medal in this Asian Games recurve team event.

Kumkum’s father makes boxes for sweet shops, and he bought many sweets to celebrate.

Kirti was once told she was too thin to use the bow well, but she trained hard and became stronger.

Ankita’s father delivered milk while helping pay for her training.

Their families supported them even when money was difficult.

The medal made their families and India very proud.
