Asian Games gold-medal winning boxer Dingko Singh has revealed that he went into depression as he was unable to travel to the national capital for his cancer treatment due to the nationwide lockdown.
Dingko Singh was on Saturday airlifted from Imphal to the national capital for his liver cancer treatment.
"If the ambulance wouldn't have been arranged, it could have been a big problem for me. Even though I wanted to come to Delhi, I couldn't come because of the lockdown," Dingko said in a video message released by the Boxing Federation of India (BFI).
"During the critical time when doctors had told me to come, I could not manage to come time to time, and so I went into depression."
