Lifter who funds training with pvt tuitions on podium

Rajkumari, a 32-year-old powerlifter from Delhi, won a bronze medal at the Asian Para Games in Hangzhou. Despite facing numerous challenges, including a bout with polio as a child and a road accident in 2018, Rajkumari has continued to pursue her passion for powerlifting. She funds her training by giving private tuition to school children. Rajkumari’s medal is particularly special to her because Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared her picture with the medal on social media. She hopes that her success will bring attention to the need for government support for para-athletes.
