CISF Swimmer Amridhesh U. Shatters National Record, Bags Seven Medals at Police Aquatic Meet

Amridhesh U., a swimmer from Palakkad in Kerala representing the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), clinched seven medals at a national police aquatic meet, including five gold, one silver, and one bronze. He also set a new meet record in the 50-metre freestyle with a blistering time of 23.80 seconds.

The national police aquatic meet brings together top athletes from various central armed police forces and state police units, serving as a key platform for talent identification. Amridhesh's exceptional performance underscores the growing depth of swimming talent within India's paramilitary forces, particularly in sprint events where sub-24-second times are increasingly competitive.

His record-breaking swim and medal haul are expected to bolster CISF's standing in the tournament and could pave the way for Amridhesh's selection to higher-level competitions, including national championships and international police meets. The achievement also highlights Kerala's continued contribution to Indian aquatics.
