Women's Day: Simranjit Kaur's Struggle Underscores Challenges Faced By Women Athletes

By IANS News March 08, 2024 • 09:36 AM View: 317

Simranjit Kaur: As the world celebrates International Women's Day on Friday, the story of boxer Simranjit Kaur should be a reminder of the challenges still faced by women athletes in sports.

While celebrating the achievements of those who have risen to prominence, it's equally crucial to shed light on the struggles of those who remain unrecognized.

"Every woman's success should be an inspiration to another. We're strongest when we cheer each other on." This quote from Serena Williams till date is very famous among Indian women athletes, who despite giving their best in the field are still struggling to get their due respect.
