Aaj ka Arjun!! Jit

Hey! All,
It’s certainly the greatest news ever for Indian sport era.
Many many heartily congratulations to Major Rathore.
He did it for India and every Indian is proud of Rathore.
I salute him and convey my all the very best wishes to him & family.
I really appreciate his never say die attitude; he’s indeed a tough soldier.
Even more blissful news for me and every Rajasthani as he belongs to Rajasthan.

Well, u ppl rather won’t believe but he used to reside near by from my home less then 5 kms, I even talked to his father Colonel Laxman singh yesterday and convey my best wishes to them over phone; if anyone of u wanna congrats them plz! Buzz’em on 0141-2350820.
He inherits a strong army heritage as his father is retd. Colonel, himself is Major and his wife Gayatri is also a Maj. Doctor.

I salute from the core of my heart the hero of the nation.


Two thumbs up to the Major!!!,

Rock on,
Jit.
 
Though Rathor is not a jat, but has a strong Haryana connection. His mother, Manju, is from Bhondsi, Gurgaon where he spent most of his childhood.
