PUNE: It seems sowing seeds and sowing dreams come naturally to the Sable family. While Mukund and Vaishali Sable were busy planning their day on the farms of Mandwa village in Beed district, their son Avinash became the first Indian to reach the 3,000m steeplechase final in the Olympics on Monday night.
The family comes from a humble background. When they had their first son in Sept 1994 it gave them a ray of hope. Their struggle continued and Avinash had to help his parents as a daily wage worker on brick kilns. They also worked as sugarcane cutters and on construction sites.
