Amritsar: The Indian hockey team has done wonders in Tokyo Olympics. The men's hockey team has reached the final of the Tokyo Olympics, now the team is just one step away from winning the medal. There is an atmosphere of happiness all over the country. Punjab CM Captain Amarinder Singh has also congratulated the Indian hockey team on the occasion, but Captain Amarinder Singh in his tweet mentioned only Punjab players. It is true that the three goals scored by India in this match were scored by the Punjab players, but other players have also contributed a lot to it. Especially in giving passes.

Yes, Captain, we are proud of Rohidas of Odisha who pushed the ball to Lalit of UP who drag-flicked it to Sanglakpam of Manipur who dribbled it to Prasad of MP who scooped it to Sreejesh of Kerala who drove it to Dilpreet, Gurjant, and Hardik, all of Punjab, who scored. Jai Hind. https://t.co/mDTnkOofhz

People have been criticizing the Chief Minister on Twitter for not mentioning other players. India's men's hockey team, adorned with young players, defeated Britain 3-1 in the first quarter-final of the day at the OI Hockey Stadium on Sunday to advance to the semi-finals for the first time in Olympics after four decades. Dilpreet Singh scored in the seventh minute, Gurjant Singh scored in the 57th minute for Team India, which reached the semi-finals after a long gap of 41 years. Samuel Ward scored the only goal for Britain in the 45th minute. All the players who scored for India are from Punjab. In a tweet, CM Captain Amarinder Singh wrote that India advanced to the top four of the Olympics decades later after beating Great Britain 3-1 due to the stellar performance of the Indian men's hockey team in the Tokyo Olympics. 'It was heartening to know that all three goals were scored by Punjab players Dilpreet Singh, Gurjant Singh Hardik Singh. Congratulations... Go to the gold medal!'

Reacting to this, a Twitter user wrote, "Yes, Captain, we are proud of Rohidas of Odisha, who pushed the ball towards Lalit of UP, who pulled it towards Sangalkapam in Manipur, who dribbled it to Prasad of MP, who gave it to Sreejesh of Kerala, who gave it to Dilpreet, given to Gurjant. Jai Hind.'' Others are also commenting on whether it is not from Punjab or from any other state team. This is Team India, it should be looked at from this point of view.
