Tokyo Olympics 2022 gold medalist Neeraj Chopra has been awarded the Padma Shri

India’s star athlete Neeraj Chopra, who won the gold medal for India in Tokyo Olympics 2022, once again achieved a big record in the Pavo Nurmi Games. Neeraj created a new national record by throwing 89.03m javelin, breaking his national record of 87.58m set during the Tokyo Olympics.

Let us tell you that Neeraj had said that he wants to go beyond 90 meters. He had said, medal is one thing, distance is another. Crossing the 90m mark will put me in the list of the best throwers in the world. I’m close to it and may get to this point soon, but I don’t think too much. There’s no pressure on me. Neeraj had gained about 13 kg after the Olympics. However, now he has regained fitness after hard training.

Significantly, Neeraj Chopra’s eyes are now set on winning medals in Commonwealth and Asian Games. Tokyo Olympics 2022 gold medalist Neeraj Chopra has been awarded the Padma Shri. After his performance and new national record, the expectations of the fans have also increased a lot. Pavo Nurmi is Finland’s top track and field competition in the summer. This competition is organized every year since 1957. It is a Continental Tour Gold Meet, a top-tier world athletics competition. It remains to be seen what Neeraj does in the Commonwealth and Asian Games, which begin in Birmingham from 28 July.
