Every time I go into a bout, I look at my father. He gives me the strength to do well.
Then the tide began to turn.
My first victory united the village. They all were proud.
In December, 2020, my mother passed away. Life became infinitely more difficult.
I pay my obeisance before I leave for practice.
I won a silver medal in a competition on her birthday. That was the best tribute I could give her.
I then got admitted into the Inspire Institute of Sports.
I walked in and saw Olympians Neeraj Chopra, Sushil Kumar and Sangeeta Phogat.
Sushil Kumar started training us. He complimented on my footwork and gave special emphasis on training me on my defence. I got trained by Phogat as well.
My dreams were coming true.
I cleared the international trials for under-17 World Championship in 2021 to be held in Hungary. I secured the seventh position in the competition.
