Golden fist: On the victory for Indian women boxers

Indian women boxers collected four gold medals, like their predecessors in 2006, M.C. Mary Kom, Sarita Devi, K.C. Lekha and R.L. Jenny, in the Delhi World championships to make an emphatic statement ahead of the Hangzhou Asian Games, a qualifying event for the 2024 Paris Olympics. The current performance of four golds, when the sport is in the Olympics and the event receives 300-plus entries from 65 countries, is remarkable as it has propelled the third-time host to top the table.
