Indian men's hockey team midfielder Chinglensana Singh Kangujam said on Tuesday that being nominated for the Arjuna Award will spur him to do better in upcoming tournaments.
The National Sports Awards are set to take place on Thursday and the 27-year-old is among the 19 athletes nominated for the Arjuna.
"It is a huge honour. I have taken pride in representing India, and having completed more than 200 international caps for India, this award motivates me to keep giving my all in the upcoming tournaments," he said.
"I am grateful to everyone who has played a part in my journey so far."
