Kya hua
Vithya Ramraj ne 2026 Asian Games ke 400m hurdles final mein Nagoya mein 54.75 seconds ka samay liya, aur 1984 mein bane PT Usha ke 55.42 second ke national record ko tod diya.
Mujhe kya farq padta hai
India ke paas ab women's 400m hurdles ka ek naya benchmark hai aur 55 seconds se kam ka samay lene wali pehli woman hain, aur race ke baad Ramraj world ranking mein 35th number par aa gayi hain.
Yaad rakh
Indian women's athletics history mein pehli baar 55 seconds se kam ka samay.
Aur context aur kis par asar
Vithya Ramraj ne Nagoya mein 54.75 seconds ka samay lekar PT Usha ke 42 saal purane 400m hurdles mark ko peeche chhoda, aur 2026 Asian Games mein bronze jeeta. Sirf UAE ki Mariam Kareem (54.31) aur Kazakhstan ki Adelina Zems (54.58) hi is baarish wale track par unse tez rahin.
Yeh Aichi-Nagoya mein unka doosra medal tha — isse pehle usi hafte unhone mixed 4x400m relay mein silver jeeta tha — aur is jeet se unki world ranking 56th se 35th par pahunch gayi. Unke coach Nehpal Singh Rathore World Championships qualifier ke liye 54 seconds se kam ka samay chahte the, aur aakhirkar woh samay aa hi gaya.
Usha ne khud records ko kuch aisa kaha jo "meant to be broken" hain, jabki Ramraj ne kaha ki unhone medal nahi, balki timing ka target rakha tha. Unhone Hangzhou 2023 mein sirf is record ki barabari ki thi; teen saal baad unhone ise tod diya.

54.75 kahan fit baithta hai
PT Usha ne 1984 mein 55.42 seconds ka national mark set kiya tha; Ramraj ne Hangzhou 2023 mein bas iski barabari ki thi, aur aakhirkar 2026 mein Nagoya mein ise tod diya. Coach Nehpal Singh Rathore ne publicly kaha hai ki sub-54-second timing hi ek Indian woman ko World Championships final tak pahunchati hai.
