August 11, 2008

  • "He fought back his back problem and we put him through a commando-type of training which has given a good result."

    Dr Bindra said a German doctor was dumbfounded on knowing about Abhinav's back problem, and despite that his son carried on with the single-minded aim of winning an Olympic medal.
