Speaking toabout the initiative, Ghanghas highlighted the importance of addressing topics that are often overlooked or considered taboo.

"It is a great experience from SAI to organize Women's issues in sports because there are many issues we do not discuss or are hesitant to discuss or think that what people would say if we raise such an issue. This will be very helpful in our field of sports. The discussions we had were very fruitful as we all opened up on it," Ghanghas told ANI.

The initiative provided a platform for female athletes to openly discuss challenges and barriers they face, fostering a supportive environment where they could share their experiences and solutions.

"Yes, definitely we will give our 100 per cent and win a gold medal," she added.
