Despite the fierce competition, where India’s Neeraj Chopra’s throw was just meters apart, Arshad’s achievement feels like it spans many miles. The season-best throws by top athletes from Grenada and Germany made them formidable contenders, yet Arshad’s throw outshone all, reminding us of the historic Olympic record broken from 2008. The difference between Neeraj’s throw and Arshad’s might be 3.52 meters, but in terms of national pride, it’s a gap that feels much wider.
Arshad’s journey, which began at the Punjab Youth Festival in 2012 organized by Rana Mashhood, has been nothing short of remarkable. His hard work and dedication have earned him widespread recognition and rewards. From Kameran Tesori pledging 2 million from his own pocket to Mayor Karachi Murtaza Wahab announcing 5 crore rupees, the nation is coming together to honor this hero.
