Neeraj Chopra dedicated his gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics to the great Milkha Singh who had passed away earlier this year
The true mettle of a man is defined by how he reacts and behaves when he has everything he has aspired for. And Neeraj Chopra gave more than a solid account of himself as he won the gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics.
Neeraj Chopra Honours Milkha Singh In The Most Befitting Of Manner
Despite being in the limelight after his 87.58m javelin throw, Neeraj was quick to dedicate his gold medal to Milkha Singh. The Indian athlete who had passed away earlier in 2021 after a lengthy and excruciating battle with COVID had aspired to see India win a gold at the games.
Milkha Singh ji, aapki last wish poori ho gayi hai!!! 😃

Not only did you win us a first-ever athletics gold medal in the #OlympicGames, you even dedicated it to my father.
The Milkha family is eternally grateful for this honour. pic.twitter.com/0gxgF8mmNQ
