Congratulating Sushil Kumar for winning bronze medal in freestyle wrestling event at Beijing Olympics, Leader of the Opposition LK Advani on Wednesday said it was indeed a proud moment for the entire country.

<b>"What makes Sushil's achievement even more heartening is that he is only the second Indian wrestler to ever win a bronze medal at the Olympic Games after Kashabha Jadhav had won a bronze in the 1952 Helsinki Games," Advani said here. </b>

Saying both Sushil Kumar and Abhinav Bindra have done the country proud with their each winning a medal at the Olympics, Advani maintained, "I extend heartiest congratulations to not only Sushil Kumar and his coach and family members but also hope that our other sportspersons will try and emulate this achievement in the remaining events."
