Milkha Singh

“I want people to be passionate about their fitness. Everyone must take ten minutes of physical exercise daily at home or outside.”

“The government does a lot, ranging from providing the infrastructure to financial support for training etc. In our time, we didn't get these facilities. Current athletes are getting all these. Yet, another Milkha Singh has not been produced in the country in nearly 60 years after me.”

“It's painful to see that after Independence, India hasn't won a single Olympic medal in athletics.”
