While there is an atmosphere of celebration in India after Neeraj Chopra won gold at the Tokyo Olympics, he is also getting good wishes from Pakistan. Arshad Nadeem, who came from Pakistan in the final of the same javelin throw event, also managed to win the medal. Arshad Nadeem reportedly considers Neeraj Chopra as his inspiration. Before the match, Arshad Nadeem's house was attended by people in big figures to watch the event. Location arrangements were made in his village to witness the competition.
People were seen praying during the same match. However, there was sadness among the people after this competition. When BBC Urdu discussed with Arshad's father, he said, "If Arshad had not gone to Turkey and had not had a corona, he would have surpassed everyone." Villagers say that Arshad may not have won medals in the Olympics, but it is a great success for us to get him to the final without any means.
Pakistan reporter Shiraz Hasan has written about Neeraj Chopra, "Neeraj Chopra is a wonderful athlete. Congratulations on the gold medal. He really deserved it. Extremely tremendous.'' Now we know why Arshad Nadeem speaks of him as his hero. One user tweeted with a tear emoji that these are tears of joy. "For the first time in India's history, he has won a gold medal in the Olympic track and field event," he writes. Neeraj Chopra, ''You are the star. Love and best wishes from Pakistan. You have done it."
