Silver Medal winner Weightlifter Mirabai Chanu on Monday returned to India after a spectacular show in the ongoing Tokyo Olympics. The silver medallist underwent a mandatory RT-PCR test at the Delhi airport. Chanu had initiated India's medals tally on Saturday as she bagged a silver in the Women's 49kg category at Tokyo International Forum.
She lifted a total of 202 kg during her four successful attempts across the competition.

China's Zhihui Hou seized gold with a total of 210kg and created a new Olympic Record while Indonesia's Windy Cantika Aisah clutched bronze with a total of 194 kg. With this monumental silver medal, Chanu has become the second Indian weightlifter to win an Olympic medal after Karnam Malleswari bagged bronze in the 69kg category at the 2000 Sydney Games when the weightlifting arena was opened to women for the first time.

Boxer Mary Kom on Sunday had congratulated Chanu for winning a silver medal at the ongoing Tokyo Olympics And said, "Congratulations Mirabai Chanu. Emotional and happy to embrace each other. A proud Manipuri and a fighter for India in one frame".
