Did Milkha Singh win an Olympic medal?

Answer 1

No. He was in fourth place in the 400m in the 1960 Rome Olympics, losing the bronze medal by fraction of a second.

He did win 5 other gold medals : one in the British and Commonwealth Games at Cardiff (1958), two at the Asian Games in Tokyo (1958) and two at Jakarta (1962).

Answer 2

no he didn't.....but he was 4th at 1960 olympics in rome due to some error made by him in the last 250m of the race.He was in such a good form that he was most expected of all to win the race but slowing down in the few seconds caused him a painful memory which he still regrets.....however he has been the gold medalist in 1958 Commonwealth Games - 400 m,1958 Asian Games - 200 m and 400 m & in asian games 1962-400m.
