After becoming the first Ironman of Udaipur in the year 2018, this is the second consequent accomplishment of him. He says ‘I don’t want cyclists to get neglected in the society; rather I want them to get highlighted. Cycling is such a great sport and being a part of the youth of India, I want each person to be fit and stay away from the toxic substances in society. I personally admire the ‘Nasha Mukt’ policy and advise people also to follow the same.
