The Flying Sikh
The Flying Sikh
2. Answer the following questions in 30-40 words.
a) According to Milkha Singh, athletes want to get famous quickly. In doing so, they resort to performance-enhancing drugs. He advises the younger generation not to take short cuts.
b) The 1956 Melbourne Olympics Games proved to be the turning point in Milkha Singh’s career as he had the privilege of meeting Charles Jenkins, who gave him insights on effective training methods and inspiration to become the world’s best athlete.
c) Milkha Singh’s inspiration was his coach Havaldar Gurdev Singh. His training included running on the hills against passing trains and along riversides. The training at times got so intense, that he did not stop until he collapsed due to exhaustion.
d) Milkha Singh’s win at the Commonwealth Games in Cardiff came as a surprise because he was a young Indian boy from a village who ran with no formal training amidst world class athletes.
3. Answer the following questions in 100-120 words.
a) Milkha Singh was leading most of the race. The nation had high hopes from him since he had already won 77 races out of 80 in the world. It was a closed deal. His plan was to run fast but steadily. He ran so fast that he thought he would trip and fall which made him slow down. Just 250 m away from the finish line, he glanced back at other competitors. It was a bad move which cost him a gold medal.
b) It was an epic race between Milkha Singh and ace sprinter from Pakistan Abdul Khaliq who was a favourite of the General Ayub Khan. The stadium was packed with 60,000 spectators that day that had flocked from different parts of the country. They didn’t see Milkha Singh run that day, they saw him fly, setting a new world record of 20.7 secs. General Ayub Khan came up to Milkha Singh and honoured him with the nickname the ‘Flying Sikh’.
