Finally India has appeared on the medals board, all credits to the ace shooter Abhinav Bindra who won Gold in Men's 10m Air Rifle. Earlier after qualifying at the 4th position, Bindra was all set for the Gold in the finals with his stunning performance. Another contender from India Gagan Narang was 9th and coudn't qualify for the finals.
