Host Tamil Nadu and Odisha won three gold medals each from the athletics arena on Wednesday with Odisha’s Omkar Prasad Nanda winning both the hammer throw and shot put gold.

Meanwhile, Haryana surged ahead in the medals tally to second position on the back of seven gold medals from boxing and all three team gold medals on the final day of fencing to put pressure on defending champions Maharashtra, who relied on their gymnastics and cycling prowess to stay ahead.

Maharashtra gymnast Aaryan Davande clinched two gold medals from parallel bars and vault to end his Khelo India campaign with four gold and a bronze.

Cyclists Vedant Jadhav from Maharashtra and Vimla Machra from Rajasthan won the keirin races at the Velodrome at TNPESU to end their respective campaigns on a high.
