Hello
India picked up two gold, four silver and three bronze on the day which was marred by controversy in the women's 100m hurdles final.
Keralite Sreeshankar produced a jump of 7.97m in his opening jump to book his spot in the final.
Keralite Sreeshankar could only manage a best of 7.74m, which he achieved in his first try.
India have won two medals so far in the championships.
The Indian mixed 4x400m relay quartet clinched the gold with a time of 3 minute and 14.70 seconds while Sarvesh Anil Kushare and Swapna Barman added a silver each in men's high jump and heptathlon respectively.
India's top shot putter Tajinder Pal Toor shattered his own Asian record with a huge throw of 21.77m, qualifying for the World Championships.
The 24-year-old Malayali jumper registered his best attempt of 8.41m, way better than the World qualification mark of 8.25m, in the very first try of the qualification round.
The 24-year-old Keralite is the third Indian after discus thrower Vikas Gowda and javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra to secure a top-three finish in the Diamond League.
The 24-year-old Sreeshankar defended the gold he had won last year with his sixth and last effort of 8.18m.
The Mission Olympic Cell also approved the proposal of judoka Linthoi Chanambam towards foreign training-cum-competitions in Georgia and Poland.
