Sundar Singh Gurjar practises at the Sawai Man Singh Stadium in Jaipur during national lockdown

World champion para javelin thrower Sundar Singh Gurjar last visited his home in Rajasthan's Karauli district (approximately 100 kms from Jaipur) in 2018 after winning gold at the Asian Para Games in Jakarta, Indonesia. He was there only for an hour with his family.

When the nationwide 21-day lockdown was announced on March 24 with a four-hour notice as one of the measures to tackle the Coronavirus in India, Gurjar, 24, had the option of going to his village or staying put at his Jaipur house. However, the youngster decided to move to the Sawai Man Singh (SMS) Stadium.
