Answer:Milkha Singh was born on 21 November 1929 according to records in Pakistan,[3] although other official records various state 17 October 1935[4] and 20 November 1935.[5] His birthplace was Govindpura,[6] a village 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from Muzaffargarh city in Punjab Province, British India (now Muzaffargarh District, Pakistan) in a Sikh Rajput (Rathore) family. He was one of 15 siblings, eight of whom died before the Partition of India. He was orphaned during the Partition, when his parents, a brother and two sisters were killed in the violence that ensued. He witnessed these killings.[1][6][7][8]
Escaping the troubles in Punjab, where killings of Hindus and Sikhs were continuing,[7] by moving to Delhi, India, in 1947, Singh lived for a short time with the family of his married sister[6] and was briefly imprisoned at Tihar jail for travelling on a train without a ticket. His sister, Ishvar, sold some jewellery to obtain his release.[8][9] He spent some time at a refugee camp in Purana Qila and at a resettlement colony in Shahdara, both in Delhi.[6]
Singh became disenchanted with his life and considered becoming a dacoit[b] but was instead persuaded by a brother, Malkhan, to attempt recruitment to the Indian Army. He successfully gained entrance on his fourth attempt, in 1951, and while stationed at the Electrical Mechanical Engineering Centre[10] in Secunderabad he was introduced to athletics. He had run the 10 km distance to and from school as a child and was selected by the army for special training in athletics after finishing sixth in a compulsory cross-country run for new recruits.[7][8] Singh has acknowledged how the army introduced him to sport, saying that "I came from a remote village, I didn't know what running was, or the Olympics".[1][7]
