Neeraj Chopra's gold medal-winning javelin joins Abhinav Bindra's rifle at Olympic Museum

Tokyo Olympics Gold medallist Neeraj Chopra gifted his most-prized javelin to the Olympic Museum in Lausanne.

Neeraj became the first track and field athlete from India to win an Olympic medal in Tokyo and now his gold-medal winning javelin is at the museum which could inspire many.

While talking to Olympics.com, India's star athlete said that he can see Abhinav Bindra's rifle at the museum which gives him tremendous motivation.

"I hope my javelin has the same impact on future athletes, especially from India," Chopra added.

Meanwhile, 2008 Olympics' gold medallist Bindra said that he is delighted that Neeraj's javelin will now join his rifle at the Olympic Museum, which has been a bit lonely in terms of Indian company so far.

With more than 90,000 artefacts, 6,50,000 photographs and 45,000 hours of videos, the museum has a rich collection of 120 years.
