23-year-old Panghal said that it is true, "I used to leave the camp on weekends. I lacked patience. The coaches used to get mad at me but I didn't care much. At that time I felt that we are getting fewer holidays and I always wanted to make full use of it". National coach CA Katappa also recalled Panghal's act and said, "Yes, we used to be upset with him. He did not return on time from holidays, did not arrive on time even for practice.
