    This is the best outing for India in terms of medals.The previous best was a lone and I guess the only medal India had won before this tournament and that was bronze by a Tomar girl.Apart from these two medals,one Sheoran and one Kaur girl have managed to secure a pretty respectable 5th pos as well.
    Kudos to all the contingent.
    Kaise kahein wardi tujhse pyaar nhi,
    Kaise kahein wardi tera intzaar nhi.
    Kuch khataa to Haryana ki maati ki bhi h,
    Ek akele hum hi gunahgaar nhi.
