From Pool Cleaner To Podium Finisher, Assam Wrestler Debi Daimari’s Silver Lining
Khelo India Tribal Games: The phrase ‘when the going gets tough, the tough get going’ is a well-known expression that highlights the drive to succeed in sports. Debi Daimiri, a wrestler, exemplifies this spirit of resilience and determination in overcoming challenges.
The 28-year-old from Dineshpur village in Sisupani, Golaghat district of Assam, lost her parents at age seven and then moved in with her uncle and aunt. She had to take on odd jobs to continue her training due to financial hardships.
All those efforts finally paid off when Debi won the silver medal in the women’s 62kg category at the Khelo India Tribal Games here.
