At the 2nd Indian Open Relay Competition held in Chandigarh, the men’s 4x100m relay team—comprising Gurindervir Singh, Animesh Kujur, Manikanta Hoblidhar, and Amlan Borgohain—set a new national record with a time of 38.69 seconds. This outstanding performance broke the previous record of 38.89 seconds, which had stood since the 2010 Commonwealth Games held in Delhi. The achievement reflects significant progress in Indian sprinting and underlines the growing competitiveness of relay events in national athletics. Such milestones also serve as inspiration for future athletes and contribute to India's track and field legacy.
