Abhinav Bindra created history by becoming the first Indian to win an Olympic gold medal in an individual event. He won the gold in the men’s 10m Air Rifle Shooting event. This is also India’s first Olympic gold since 1980. Abhinav made every Indian proud.
Abhinav means “new.” So, just like your name, I wish his achievements bring in a new era of hope to Indian sport and instil confidence in young and aspiring athletes. I wish to thank his parents for supporting him in choosing an alternate profession. Wishing all the athletes of the present contingent the best of luck.
It is very rare to find talent and humility in the same person, and Abhinav has both. May this unique quality remain forever and help him scale greater heights.
God bless him.
