Who among the following is India's first-ever two-time Olympic medallist in an individual event and the first Indian to win a wrestling world championship?
Sushil Kumar
Wrestler Sushil Kumar won a bronze medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics and a silver medal at the 2012 London Olympics, making him India's first individual athlete to win two Olympic medals.
He also became the first Indian to win a wrestling World Championship gold, at the 2010 World Wrestling Championships in Moscow.
Bajrang Punia and Geeta Phogat are noted wrestlers but do not hold both these records, and Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore is a shooter, not a wrestler.
Hence, the correct answer is Sushil Kumar.
