Games bring together Indian brothers

by isleofman.com 12th September 2011

There was an emotional reunion at the Commonwealth Youth Games at the weekend, when two Indian brothers met for the first time in 34 years.

Dr Gourashyam Khuraijam left Manipur in the 1970s and has worked at Noble's Hospital for many years.

He has been unable to return to his hometown because of travel restrictions in the region, and had no idea his brother was with the Indian badminton team.

Dr Khuraijam says the meeting was even more fortuitous as he had changed his name since arriving in Britain:
