New Delhi: 5 in the morning in India on Thursday.
Manjit Kaur, mother of the captain of the Indian man’s hockey team, Manpreet Singh, received a telephone call at his residence in Mithapur Punjab Village (about 6 kilometers from Jalandhar).
It was his son’s call.
It was surprising for mothers because Manpreet rarely called two hours before the big match.
It is also suitable where the Olympic medal for this country is at stake.
In a short conversation, Manpreet told his mother, “Medal Pakka Laauga, Tussi Ardaas Karo (I will win a medal, you pray to God for our success)”.
Pray for him to do! For the next three hours and a little more, Kaur prayed for Indian victory.
“I asked him (Manpreet) to return with a medal and he fulfilled my wishes,” he told Toi.
“Hard work included by Manpreet and his team-mate for more than 12 years finally paid off.
When the Olympics began, we hope from the gold medal, but bronze is equally valuable because history has been made.
I am sure India will win a gold medal, next time, “He said.
Over the next few weeks, Manpreet will get several awards and monetary rewards.
But his mother had a simple but valued prize in the store for him.
“My child really likes Aloo Ka Parathas and Aloo Ki Sabzi made by me.
It will be a gift from me.
Even though I constantly touched him through video calls during the Olympics, I waited to hug him with a medal on his neck,” he added.
Kaur witnessed all matches between India and Germany while holding a hockey stick.

This is because this stick that Manpreet has reached where he is today, someone should not forget his roots and remain grounded,” he said.
Mrs.
Manpreet has become a pillar of strength for her son, working hard to support his dream to become a successful hockey player.
“My mother is the biggest inspiration in my life.
If she isn’t there, I won’t be anything.
He is the motivation behind who I am today.
I owe everything I have obtained in my career,” Manpreet said before leaving for Tokyo.
He used to take part time work to support the family after Manpreet’s father was withdrawn by mental health problems.
His father died in 2016 while Manpreet competed in the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup.
“My mother had seen a lot of trouble.
He raised me alone since childhood after my father developed a mental health problem,” he said.
