The two-week sporting action of the Paris 2024 Olympics extravaganza will come to a close on August 11th, Sunday as the organisers prepare for the same. Like every edition, a closing ceremony will take place in Paris and fans in India are inevitably curious as to when and where they can watch the same unfold.
Unlike the opening ceremony, which took place on the backdrop of River Seine, the closing one will be a more traditional affair as it will be held inside the picturesque Stade de France. About 80000 spectators are expected to mark their presence in the French capital. For India's, shooter Manu Bhaker and Hockey Goalkeeper PR Sreejesh will serve as the flag bearers for the closing ceremony.
Bhaker had created history by winning two bronze in the same edition, doing so in the women's 10m Air Pistol event and the mixed team 10m Air Pistol event alongside Sarabjot Singh. Meanwhile, Sreejesh finished his storied 18-year-career by playing an integral role in Indian men's hockey team clinching bronze. The veteran goalkeeper's efforts were especially notable when a 10-man India defeated The Great Britain in the quarter-finals.
However, India winning only 6 medals in the competition leaves a lot to be desired.
