NEW DELHI: All hell broke loose for Jarmanpreet Singh in 2015 when a shot for back pain by a village doctor put him in the doping net, and the 19-year-old back then was banned from playing competitive hockey for two years. Almost a decade since, it's a different life for the defender -- as an Olympic medallist and soon-to-be Arjuna award recipient.
"I was elated when I got the news (shortlisted for Arjuna) because it's every player's dream to get such a big honour," said Jarmanpreet, the glee in his voice rolling the clock back to 2014-15.
