Car crash lays Jugraj low

Hockey star Jugraj Singh was hurt in an automobile accident at Dakoha near Jalandhar on September 2. The 20-year-old ace drag-flicker suffered multiple fractures on his right thigh and hand; there was some bone loss in his right elbow too.

Jugraj had played a stellar role in India's campaign in the Champions Trophy in Amstelveen, Holland.

He underwent successful multiple surgeries at the Mayo Clinic in the US recently. Doctors are optimistic he will be back in action in a couple of months.
