National Indoor Athletics: Gurvindervir Singh Sprints To Glory In 60m Dash
National Indoor Athletics Championships: Punjab’s 26-year-old international sprinter Gurvindervir Singh displayed resilience to walk away with the men's 60m title on the final day of the two-day first National Indoor Athletics Championships at Indoor Stadium in Bhubaneswar on Wednesday.
In a thrilling 60m final reduced to five athletes after three false starts, Gurvindervir Singh stayed focused to rocket off the blocks and crossed the finish line in 6.60 seconds to win gold. His gold-winning time was better than the previous national 60m indoor record of 6.67 seconds, set by VK Elakkiadasan in 2022.
“It was a good start to the 2026 season. I hope to sustain my efforts in outdoor races,” the eventual winner said of posting a national 60m indoor record in his first race of the season. Gurvindervir Singh represented Reliance in the competition.
