Weightlifter Jeremy Lalrinnunga bagged India's maiden gold medal at the Youth Olympics, claiming the top honours in the men's 62 kg category in Buenos Aires earlier this month.
The 15-year-old from Aizwal, who is also a world youth silver medallist, lifted a total of 274 kg (124 kg +150 kg) to finish on top in the Argentine capital.
The silver medal went to Turkey's Toptas Caner, who lifted 263 kg (122 kg + 141 kg), while Colombia's Villar Estiven Jose took the bronze with an effort of 260 kg (115 kg + 143 kg).
The Mizo sensation, who has turned 16 on 26 October, is being touted as the next big name in Indian weightlifting.
Earlier this year, Lalrinnunga claimed a silver (youth) and a bronze (junior) in the Asian Championships, smashing two national records in the process.
