Visa News: In a commendable step, Atlys CEO Mohak Nahta has fulfilled his promise to provide free visas to all Indians, even if Neeraj Chopra finished the Olympics with a silver instead of a gold medal. Neeraj, who had won a gold medal in the Olympics in Tokyo before, finished second in the men’s javelin final this time. Arshad Nadeem of Pakistan, on the other side, created history by winning the nation’s first individual gold medal.
Mohak Nahta Fulfills His Promise
Mohak Nahta, the Indian-origin founder of the US-based visa startup, took to LinkedIn to announce that he would still go ahead with his original offer, emphasizing that “it might not be the color of the medal but our spirit that shines.” He expressed his pride in India’s achievement and stated that those who had commented with their emails on his previous posts would soon receive instructions from Atlys on how to redeem their free visas.
Background on the Offer
Earlier this month, Mohak Nahta had made headlines with his bold LinkedIn post, where he promised to personally send free visas to everyone if Neeraj Chopra clinched a gold at the Olympics. Although Neeraj came close with an impressive 89.45m throw that earned him a silver medal, Nahta decided to honor the spirit of the promise rather than the exact conditions.
Neeraj Chopra’s Achievement and Pakistan’s Historic Win
In the javelin event, Neeraj Chopra showcased his exceptional talent with an 89.45m throw, securing a silver medal and joining an exclusive list of Indian athletes who have won multiple Olympic medals in individual sports. This elite group includes names like Norman Pritchard, Sushil Kumar, P.V. Sindhu, and Manu Bhaker. Meanwhile, Pakistan’s Arshad Nadeem stole the show by setting an Olympic record with a massive 92.97m throw, securing the gold.
