Pakistan’s sports hero Arshad Nadeem, who on Sunday won the gold medal for the country in the javelin throw competition at the ongoing Commonwealth Games here, has thanked the International Olympic Association (IOA) for providing him with a scholarship till the Paris Olympics 2024 and hoped the financial assistance under this scholarship would help further shine his skills at javelin throw by availing better training facilities and continue to scale new heights of success. “I am also obliged to the Pakistan Olympic Association (POA) for its efforts in this regard to help him secure the much-needed IOA scholarship”, he said, adding, I am thankful to Almighty God for enabling me to secure a gold medal at the Commonwealth Games for the country. Arshad, who emerged as the first javelin thrower from the entire sub-continent to cross the 90-metre mark to bag the gold medal, said that the scholarship would not only enable him to focus on the game in the real sense of the word but also provide him with an opportunity to get better training opportunity and enhance his capability in the game, which in turn would enable me to continue to win further laurel for the country at the international level, particularly the Paris Olympics, for which I am yearning.
