Tripura CM Felicitates Commonwealth Gold Medallist Asmita Dey
The Chief Minister made the remarks while addressing a reception ceremony organised in honour of Asmita Dey by the Department of Youth Affairs and Sports at Rabindra Satabarshiki Bhavan in Agartala. At the ceremony, he handed over a cheque of Rs 10 lakh to Asmita Dey on behalf of the state government. A land allotment document was also handed over to her family.
Saha said the people of Tripura had so far known gymnast Deepa Karmakar as the state’s ‘Golden Girl’ and taken immense pride in her achievements. “Today, Asmita Dey has established herself as the second name in that list. Coming from a very ordinary family in Sonaichari village of Belonia subdivision in South Tripura, Asmita has made Tripura’s name shine on the world stage through her hard work, concentration and indomitable willpower. Her success is a matter of pride for the entire state,” he said.
