A Correct answer
Explanation

Sushil Kumar is indeed the second Indian wrestler to win an Olympic medal. Khashaba Jadhav won bronze in 1952 (Helsinki), making him the first. Sushil Kumar then won bronze in 2008 Beijing and silver in 2012 London, making him India's first multiple Olympic medalist in wrestling.

AI explanation

K.D. Jadhav won India's first individual Olympic medal in wrestling (bronze, 1952 Helsinki). Sushil Kumar then won bronze at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, becoming the second Indian wrestler (and second individual medal) — he later added a silver in 2012 London, becoming the first Indian to win two individual Olympic medals. So the statement that he is the 2nd wrestler to win an Olympic medal for India is correct.
