Animesh Kujur smashed the 100m national record with a creditable timing of 10.18 seconds at the Dromia International Sprint and Relays Meeting in Greece on Saturday. The 22-year-old Kujur bettered Gurindervir Singh’s earlier 100m national record of 10.20 seconds in the meet at Vari, a suburb of Greece capital Athens. Sotirios Garagganis of Greece (10.23s) and Samuli Samuelsson (10.28s) were second and third respectively in the World Athletics Continental Tour silver label meet.

Adiwasi genetics 🧬 🕉️🚩
give chance to the siddis, they have genetics to bring golds in race and track for sure.
Amazing! Congratulations!! Slowly the Indian record is inching towards the sub-10 mark.
There are so many such talents in Tribal communities who can achieve so much for the country. But government doesn't care & most of the people in powerful positions have casteist mindset. They're still just living in hatred about people from marginalized communities getting benefit of reservation in that 2% government sector. Meanwhile there are 90% + jobs exist in private sector where there's no reservation. Yet they think that their hatred towards marginalized castes are justified. Grow up.
Great performance!!!! Keep it up.
Animesh.. pride of Bharath, pride of Orisha…
Indian Usain Bolt ❤
Great
He is from Chhattisgarh's Oraon tribe of Jashpur district…Tribals have very athletic personality….we need to capitalise and utilise this unique tribal quality to create more such Indian Athletic gems…🇮🇳Proud Chhattisgarhiya, proud Indian 🇮🇳
Ayesha will be happy 😂
He's tall and fast and so amazing at such a young age! 🙏🏼
Worse than usa high school.
Well done. Development and infrastructure is seeping down to those who can properly use them to lead better lives for themselves and take India to greater heights. For this to happen, sports infrastructure in India must have pervaded in remote areas.
Proud of Animesh
Black people are great athelete
Wait for a running Indian… I didn't think Indian run Congratulations.🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
In about 100 years time hopefully an Indian can break the 10 second barrier

An African. 😂

10.18 second is crazy ❤❤
For those racists – bharat is in ur heart ! Ur soul , ur mind – we see no distinction on skin bec. Reincarnation has proven a brahmin in 1 birth can be a shudra in another , ppl will b reborn as per karmic acts till dey r clean enough to escape maya. Bharat has close to 2000 islands as part of its moden identity & in da southern areas dees r higly african origin of ppl who came 60 000 yrs ago & settled.in chess only grey matter – matters ! Not female or male not black or white & always remember reincarnation as a fact ! So da dog u kick might have ur grandparent u loved so much ! Live ur life like a hindu – support dees kids dey r da future & defy da aryan white european belief dat us brownies where stupid & dumb. Dees kids r our future & a link to our past. Love dem support dem just stop wid da colour apartheid please !
