Mr. Singh started off with his early days of being an athlete and how immense hard work, dedication and a very strong chemistry with his coach helped him grow.
He told about how the balance between physical and mental fitness affects the athlete’s performance and how the Infrastructure and sports culture needs to be developed in our country.
