JAKARTA: After the conclusion of various sporting events on the fourth day of the 18th edition of the Asian Games 2018, India bagged a total of 15 medals, which include 4 Gold, 3 Silver and 8 Bronze medals. As the events came to an end on the Day 4, India bagged four Bronze medals in Wushu, taking its overall medals count to 15.  In total, India added five medals to its kitty on Day 4 - one Gold and four Bronze medals. Rahi Sarnobat won Gold in the morning in shooting while the four Bronze medals came in Wushu

India currently stands at the 7th spot. China continues to top the medals tally, followed closely by Japan and Korea. 

Earlier, India’s 16-year-old shooter Saurabh Chaudhary bagged India’s third Gold medal in the 10m Air Pistol event (240.7 points) on Tuesday. He also became the youngest to win a Gold medal in a shooting event at the Asian Games, since 2006. Thailand's Thanyalak Chotphibunsin, at 16 (14 days), had won the Gold in the Women's team category in 2006. Abhishek Verma won the Bronze medal in the same event as India won two medals in a particular shooting event (in Asian Games) for the first time in their Games history. 

The Shooting contingent added another medal to its tally when Sanjeev Rajput clinched the Silver medal in the 50m Air Rifle 3 Positions (Men) final. He had scored 452.7 points to finish second in the event. Wrestler Divya Kakran outclassed Chinese Taipei’s Chen Wenling 10-0 to win the Bronze medal in Women’s Freestyle 68 kg bout.
