It is linked to the Rio Paralympics, he was disqualified for reaching the call room 52 seconds late before the match. After which his dream of winning a medal was shattered. He was also mentally hurt. It was only after being mentally broken that he took the oath that he would never lift the javelin again.

He had to pay the price of 52 seconds by getting disqualified. But, the oath he had taken due to that disqualification, he finally had to break it for the sake of the country.
