The biggest festival of sports Olympics is being organized in Paris this time, in which 117 athletes from India are participating. 

The last time the Olympics held in Tokyo saw the best performance in Indian sports history so far, in which a total of 7 medals were won. 

This time a better performance is expected, which also includes the athletes who won medals last time. 

The biggest name in this is Neeraj Chopra, who participated in the javelin throw event, who won the gold medal in the Tokyo Olympics. In such a situation, we are going to tell you about those athletes who won medals in the Tokyo Olympics and are now going to participate in the Paris Olympics as well.

The strength of Indian women athletes was seen in the Tokyo Olympics, in which weightlifter Mirabai Chanu won the silver medal in the 49 kg weight category event. 

Mirabai Chanu is also participating in the same event category in the Paris Olympics, so everyone is expecting her to win the gold medal instead of silver this time. 

Apart from this, boxing player Lovlina Borhagen and badminton player PV Sindhu were also successful in winning bronze medals in the Tokyo Olympics. While PV Sindhu won a medal in the women's singles event in badminton, Lovlina succeeded in winning the medal in the 75 kg category of women's boxing.

The Indian hockey team once witnessed a golden era in the Olympic Games. However, before the Tokyo Olympics, the performance of the Indian hockey team was not very good. In the last Olympics, the Indian men's hockey team won the bronze medal. 

The Indian men's hockey team has also managed to qualify for the Paris Olympics. At the same time, the only gold medal in the Tokyo Olympics came in the men's javelin throw event in which Neeraj Chopra created history and a similar performance is expected from him in Paris as well
