Himanshu Dhillon Wins Asian Games Silver After Transition from Wrestling to Shooting
Himanshu Dhillon, a 20-year-old Indian shooter, won a silver medal at the Asian Games, narrowly finishing behind China's Sheng Lihao.

Coming from a farming background in Haryana, he showed composure in both team and individual events, marking a notable debut at the Games. His journey reflects a shift from wrestling and farming to excelling in shooting at a major international competition.
