Rahi won the bronze medal in world cup 2011 and got selected for London Olympics in 2012, thereby becoming the first Indian shooter to qualify for the 25 meters sports pistol event in the Olympics. Rahi is a double gold medallist at the 2010 Delhi Commonwealth Games and had a bronze in the 25m pistol pairs event at the 2014 Incheon Asian Games. She won her first gold medal at the 2008 Commonwealth Youth Games in Pune. Rahi had not won a major medal since the Commonwealth Games gold in 2014 due to the injury. Rahi was taken aback when she was told that she had become the first female from India to win a shooting gold at Asian Games. But this medal was extremely important for her, having also undergone a laparoscopic surgery earlier this year.
