100 Yrs Of Indian Hockey: Trilochan Singh Bawa’s Medals Serve As A Motivation For Us At Home, Says Son Sukhwinder Bawa
World over, Indian hockey, for a considerable period of time, has been looked at as the benchmark simply because of the roll of honour. With a tally of 8 gold medals, one silver, and 4 bronze, totalling 13 medals at the Olympic Games, India has well and truly set the standards.
One of the most iconic medals, though, was the one in the 1948 London Olympics, when Independent India’s flag went up and the anthem played out for the first time ever, at the most important sporting event. And someone who played a huge role in securing that medal was Trilochan Singh Bawa, as he scored some very crucial goals during the competition in London. The final in London was played at Wembley Stadium, and it was a symbolic and historic victory, marking India’s emergence as an independent sporting power.
