After 41 years after the Indian men’s hockey team created history by winning the bronze medal in the Tokyo Olympics, now the eyes of the entire country are on the women’s hockey team. The team went into the field against Britain at 7 in the morning to win the bronze medal. Britain made a comeback in the third quarter to level the match at 3-3.
Indian team scored 3 goals in 4 minutes in the second quarter
The match ended in a 0-0 draw in the first quarter. Britain scored two goals in the second quarter. After trailing 2-0, the Indian team made a tremendous comeback in the second quarter and scored 3 goals within 4 minutes. Gurjit Kaur scored in the 25th and 26th minutes to level the first score 2-2. After this, Vandana Kataria gave the lead to Team India by scoring in the 29th minute. Britain got two penalty corners in the first quarter, but Indian goalkeeper Savita Poonia made both of them useless. In the second quarter, Britain’s Eli Rier scored in the 16th minute and Sarah Robertson in the 24th minute to give Britain the lead.
There is no light in the house since night
There is no light in Gurjit Kaur’s house since night. The relatives called and said that they have to watch the match, but the light did not come. There was said to be a technical fault. Gurjeet’s brother Akash Vinder Singh has said that the family is a little worried due to lack of electricity but has arranged for a generator. At the same time, as soon as the TV turned on when the generator was running, Gurjeet scored the first goal. Now the process of gathering of people in the house has also started.

Gurjeet’s brother did not watch the match
Gurjit Kaur’s brother Akash Vinder Singh made arrangements for the generator by juggling with the tractor when there was no light. But they are not watching the match. Because they say that whenever they watch a match, the team loses. That’s why they won’t even watch today’s match, they will only do ardas, chant Waheguru’s name.
Parents want Gurjit’s job in Punjab
Gurjit’s father Satnam Singh and mother Harjinder Kaur have demanded that whenever their daughter plays, Punjab’s name should be illuminated. But for the last several years, she is working as a senior clerk in Allahabad Railway. Our demand is that he should be given a job in Punjab near his home. If that happens then she can focus on her game better. Not only this, his daughter should be given a job at least at the post of DSP in Punjab. If the daughter wins the bronze medal, then she should be placed on the post of SP.
