Flying Sikh’ Milkha Singh to unfurl the IndianFlag at Michigan this Independence Day at the function organized by the Indian community on 15th August, where they will honour the legendary sprinter.

Singh will embark upon a month-long visit to the United States and Canada beginning this August the 2nd to participate in the functions.

“For long, the Indian community in the US and Canada wanted me to come. I will be traveling to Michigan, New York, California (in U.S.) and Toronto (Canada). On August 15, a function has been organised by the Indian community at Michigan, where I will unfurl the tricolour,” said Mikha Singh.

Even though it’s difficult for him to undertake long travels given his old age, “yet I could not hold back as our people living abroad wanted me to come and join the celebrations as part of the Independence Day, besides wanting me to be part of some other events.”
