Hailing the spectacular success of Chain Singh, Azad said that his achievement has made people of Chenab Valley, J and K State as well as the country proud and that it will serve as an inspiration for the younger generation of the State, especially the youth of backward and difficult Chenab Valley region.
Feeling highly elated by the spectacular success of Chain Singh, who hails from his native area in District Doda, Azad wished him many more successes in the coming days.
Wani said that by winning a medal in Asian games, the son of the soil from Doda District has created a history and is now a source of inspiration not only for energetic youth from this backward region but also youth of the State. Wani assured a great intervention by the government for creating the best possible sports infrastructural facilities in the State.
