Pakistan's star athlete Arshad Nadeem has landed in Pakistan after putting up a tremendous performance at the Tokyo Olympics 2020.

Though the track and field athlete could not win a medal in the world's biggest sports festival, he won the hearts of pakistanis with his indomitable will to put pakistan on the map with little resources at his disposal.

A large number of sports fans had gathered at the airport to welcome arshad before his arrival. Punjab Minister for Youth and Sports Rai Taimoor Khan Bhatti, President of the Athletics Federation Pakistan, coaches and athletes received him at the airport.

It is pertinent to mention here that Nadeem had finished fifth during the javelin throw in the Tokyo Olympics 2020, with India's Neeraj Chopra taking home the Gold medal.

He made history at the global event by becoming the first-ever Pakistani athlete to qualify for the final of any track and field event in the Olympics.

Recognizing his efforts in the sports, the Punjab government has announced a cash reward worth Rupees 1 million for Arshad Nadeem for his stellar performances in the Tokyo Olympics.
