Pooja Gehlot has bagged a silver medal in the ongoing U-23 World Wrestling Championships.
The wrestler lost her final clash against Japan's Haruno Okuno.
"Many congratulations to #PoojaGehlot for winning the silver medal in women's 53 kg event at the U-23 World #Wrestling C'ships after going down to 2017 World Sr. champion Haruna Okuno.#KheloIndia," SAI Media tweeted.
Gehlot's silver-medal performance matches India's best result at the Championships.
