Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Monday congratulated Neeraj Chopra on winning the gold medal in javelin throw at the World Athletics Championship.  Â
''Once more, the Olympic champion Neeraj Chopra works his magic! His incredible Javelin throws shine at the #WorldAthleticsChampionships2023, securing the Gold'', Sarma posted in 'X', formerly Twitter.
''Outstanding performance, @Neeraj_chopra1. Your achievements consistently elevate our spirits'', he added.
Chopra on Sunday scripted history by winning the gold with a big throw of 88.17m in the men's javelin final at the World Athletics Championships in Budapest, Hungary. The 25-year-old has now become only the second Indian -- after legendary shooter Abhinav Bindra -- to simultaneously hold both the Olympics and World Championships titles.
