Olympic hockey medallist Gurbax Singh Grewal has passed away at the age of 84 after suffering a heart attack. He was a member of the Indian team that won bronze at the 1968 Mexico City Olympics.
Legendary Olympians urged the authorities concerned that Mumbai be allowed to continue in its present independent state with direct affiliation to Hockey India as a full member.
'Indian hockey will lose out on one of its most important nurseries of good hockey talent.'
Former India hockey Olympian Joseph Antic's condition has improved since being hospitalised in Mumbai on Friday morning.
