Singh shattered national records in women’s 100m freestyle, 100m breaststroke and 200 backstroke events. She won the 100m freestyle in 1:03.91 to break the previous record held by Sofia Shah. Shah’s previous mark was  1:05.78, set during the 19th National Swimming Championships last year.

Singh timed 1 minute 26.72 seconds to set new record in 100m breaststroke. Bibidha Rimal had long held the mark at 1:27.54 during the 2007 Pramod Memorial Swimming. She then broke the 200m backstroke national mark by bettering her own previous record she had set last year. She finished the course in 2:37.87. Her previous national record was 2:48.16. The 200 backstroke was held only as a time trial after less than four swimmers turned up.

Meanwhile, Neharika Tuladhar also set a new national record in the age-group category on Sunday. Tuladhar won the 50m breaststroke girls’ 15-17 age-group title in 39.78.

She broke Bibidha Rimal’s previous mark of 40.07 which she set during the first South Asian Swimming Federation Games in 2007.
