Arshad Nadeem's Heartfelt Message to Neeraj Chopra's Mother

Pakistan's javelin throw sensation, Arshad Nadeem, has expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Neeraj Chopra's mother, Saroj Devi, for her maternal affection. Nadeem's historic triumph at the Paris Olympics 2024, where he became the first Pakistani to win an individual gold medal in javelin, has garnered immense admiration and support.

Following the event, Devi expressed her fondness for Nadeem, stating that he was like a son to her. Nadeem's response was filled with warmth and appreciation. "A mother is a mother for everyone, so she prays for everyone too. I'm grateful to Neeraj Chopra's mother. She's my mother too. She prayed for us, and we were just two players from South Asia who performed on the world stage," Nadeem said.

Nadeem's remarkable achievement has not only brought glory to Pakistan but has also strengthened the bond between the two neighboring nations. His victory has been celebrated across the border, with many Indians expressing their joy and admiration for the Pakistani athlete.

In recognition of his exceptional performance, the Pakistani government has announced that Nadeem will be honored with the Hilal-e-Imtiaz, the second-highest civilian award in the country. Additionally, a commemorative stamp titled 'Azm-e-Istehkam' (commitment to stability) will be issued on the occasion of Pakistan's 77th Independence Day.

Nadeem's triumph is a testament to his unwavering determination and the support he has received from his family, coaches, and the Pakistani people. His victory has inspired countless young athletes and has brought immense pride to his nation.
