Twenty percent of India’s contingent of 117 athletes headed to Paris to compete at the ongoing Olympics comes from Haryana, according to data shared by the Sports Authority of India.
Paris 2024 will see India being represented in 16 sports by 70 men and 47 women.
Of these 117 athletes, Haryana has the maximum representation with 24 athletes while Punjab has 19 athletes headed to France’s capital. Between themselves, the two northern states contribute to 36 percent of India’s Paris Olympics contingent.
In addition to the players, the Sports Ministry is also sending 140 support staff members and other officials.
Former rifle shooter Gagan Narang, who is a bronze medalist from the London Olympics and currently the vice president of the Indian Olympic Association, has been appointed as Chef de Mission.
The obvious difference between Tokyo and Paris is the improved ratio between athletes and support staff, which Usha said was a conscious effort. “Instead of the usual 3:1 ratio between athletes and support staff, we have worked hard to change it to slightly better than a 1:1 ratio,” said IOA president PT Usha.
Here is the full sport-wise and state-wise breakdown of India’s full contingent headed to Paris Olympics:
