Haider Ali makes us proud!

Filed under: Current Affairs

Haider Ali- a 23 year old Pakistani athlete has made the nation proud by winning a Silver medal in 2008 Summer Paralympics held at Beijing in China. Hats off to this guy who suffers from Cerebral Palsy but has brought back a Silver medal creating history because Pakistan never had won in International Paralympic Games before.

                              

You can read more about Haider Ali in this wiki article that I just created (and ‘am hoping it doesn’t get deleted :P ) here.

Or you can also read about him on other blogs like:

Teeth Maestro(Haider’s pic has also been taken from here)

    He is an asset for us :) and the picture is named so because I stole it from Teeth Maestro’s blog and he has mistakenly mentioned in his post that Haider won Bronze Medal :)

    Waisay I hope u r not taking this image to put it in the wiki article :P I didn’t put it there because of copyright issues :)
