Indian Athletes Overcome Challenges Ahead of Asian Games and National CompetitionsPreviousNext

Three Indian athletes—shooter Rahi Sarnobat, shooter Vidarsa K Vinod, and karate champion Janmoni Konwar—are preparing for major competitions despite significant challenges. Rahi overcame neuropathic pain syndrome to return to shooting for her third Asian Games. Vidarsa rose from a college NCC trial to the national shooting squad despite financial hurdles. Janmoni, displaced by floods in Assam, won gold at a national karate championship while living in a relief camp, supported by community aid.
