Everyone said that it is impossible to ride without having arms. I started learning by myself and made gradual progress. In the beginning, I would make the half rotation of the pedals and later I learned to do complete pedaling.  This gave me a new hope and changed my life completely.”

“I Have Learnt From Falling Down”

While riding the cycle he used to keep the pace high as a result he fell down from the cycle a lot of times. He says, “I have learned from falling down. Every time I fell down I get up and learned something new”. Furthermore, he has completed the Patiala’s 212 Kilometer long cyclothon in just 9 minutes and 15 seconds.
