X
As a historic moment, Indian Athlete Neeraj Chopra had achieved what the country has been expecting it's athletes to do in track events.

Keeping an end to India's long wait for Gold at the prestigious Olympic tournament, Neeraj Chopra struck gold at the Javelin Throw event.

After making India proud, Neeraj Chopra had dedicated the medal to Indian Sprinter Milkha Singh who is popularly known as Flying Sikh due to the speed he generates while running on the track.

Soon after he was presented the Gold Medal, Neeraj Chopra addressed the media and announced that he is dedicating his medal to Milkha Singh.

The legendary sprinter Milkha Singh who made several records and brought medals at various events has left the world without fulfilling his dream.

The Flying Sikh had always one dream running in his mind. That is to take gold home at the Olympic tournament. However, his wish remained incomplete. His wish of watching an Indian athlete winning gold was also not fulfilled.
