This wasn't the only record that was broken in swimming, earlier Aryan Nehra broke the National Record by clocking a time of 15:20:81 and finished 7th in Men's 1500m Freestyle.

The Indian team managed to secure a fifth-placed finish by clocking 3:40:20. China dominated the contest once again as they clocked a timing of 3:27.01 to seal the top spot at the podium. 

The Republic of Korea secured a silver medal with a timing of 3:32.05 just 5 seconds shy of the top spot. While Japan missed out on the second spot by a fraction as they registered 3:32.52 and settled for bronze.

India also suffered disappointment in individual events as both swimmers, Kusharga Rawat and Aryan Nehra, settled for bottom-of-the-table finishes. Aryan finished 7th with 15:20.91 on the clock while Kusharga clocked 15:44.61 to finish last.
