Neeraj Chopra has tied the knot with Himani in a beautiful wedding ceremony. The Olympic winner announced the news of his wedding by posting the pictures with his wife on Instagram. Fans extended their congratulatory messages in the comment sections.
He wrote, “जीवन के नए अध्याय की शुरुआत अपने परिवार के साथ की। Grateful for every blessing that brought us to this moment together. Bound by love, happily ever after. Neeraj & Himani.”
In an interview with The Lallantop, Neeraj talked about the doping issue among the Indian athletes.
Speaking to Lallantop, he said, “Totally, nowadays doping is a big problem in India among our athletes. I would like to tell them that once doping is in the mind, it gets hard in the future. They are unable to play at that level. They think that only doping can get them performance, but that is not the truth. It is their hard work and self-belief, proper guidance from the coach will take you forward. Eat well, rest well and work hard. Do everything properly. To tell you the truth, once they dope, the dope test happens, and they get caught. They receive a ban of 2-4 years. There is no life in that. So if you want to play at a good level, the mindset of our athletes needs to be changed. I request the coaches to not tell them that doping will help them and keep them far away from it.”
“I feel if this improves, our level of sports will become better. Nowadays what happens is that any kid who is good in sports, reaches a good level and then comes under doping. That is an issue. They also need to eat and drink outside carefully,” Chopra added.
