Sepoy Harmanjot Singh of the Athletics Team at Sikh Regimental Centre, Ramgarh, produced an impressive performance at the Japan Track & Field Grand Prix Series – Yogibo Athletics Challenge Cup 2026 in Niigata, Japan, securing the silver medal in the 10,000m race.
Harmanjot clocked 28:30.86 to finish second in the prestigious event, adding another international achievement to his growing athletics record.
The feat comes on the back of a strong domestic showing at the recently concluded 75th Inter-Services Athletics Championship, where Harmanjot claimed victories in both the 5,000m and 10,000m events.
The Eastern Command congratulated the athlete on his achievement and wished him continued success in his future sporting endeavours.
