Assam’s Amlan Borgohain broke the national record in the men’s 100 meters when he clocked 10.25 seconds at the Inter-railway athletics championships in Rae Bareli, Uttar Pradesh. The 24-year-old Amlan is now the country’s fastest in both the sprint events.
Earlier this year at the Federation Cup, he had clocked 20.52s to set a new national record in the men’s 200 meters.
The previous 100-meter record was held by Amiya Kumar Malick with a time of 10.26. Amlan’s performance on Monday was a big improvement on his previous best time of 10.34 seconds.
