On this National Sports Day, we remember the sportspersons born in Madhya Pradesh who brought pride to the state by representing India in Olympics. For these athletes, there is no greater joy than competing at the highest level and wearing the tricolor on the world stage.
Roop Singh: Roop Singh was born in Jabalpur. He was a hockey player and younger brother of legendary hockey player Major Dhyan Chand. He was a member of Indian field hockey team that secured gold medal in 1932 and 1936 Olympic games.
Aslam Sher Khan: Hailing from Bhopal, Aslam Sher Khan is the son of gold medal-winning hockey player Ahmed Sher Khan. Aslam is best remembered for his pivotal penalty corner conversion in dying minutes of 1975 World Cup semi-final against Malaysia. He also represented India at 1972 Munich Olympics.
