Neeraj Chopra to Resume Training After Ankle Injury Recovery
Indian javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra, a two-time Olympic medallist, has reported significant improvement in his ankle injury sustained during training in August. The injury forced him to miss the 2026 Asian Games and the Diamond League finale. After consulting orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Dinshaw Pardiwala, Chopra plans to resume training and rehabilitation within the next couple of weeks. He credited the Target Olympic Podium Scheme (TOPS) and Sports Authority of India (SAI) for their ongoing support during his recovery. Chopra also welcomed the government's recent Khelo India Sports Goods Manufacturing Scheme.
