04 talented Sportswomen have been enrolled in Indian Army under the Mission Olympics Programme. These Meritorious Sportswomen will be participating in the ongoing National Boxing and Wrestling Championship.
The Indian Army who are always made more than a billion people of the Motherland feel safe by guarding India’s International borders with their selfless sacrifice and dedication has also been very prominent with its contribution towards sports helping the country provide some of the best athletes on the global stage.
In recent days Jaismine Lamboriya created history by becoming the first-ever female boxer to join the Indian Army after her bronze medal at Commonwealth Games 2022.
Indian Army is known to be home to multiple champion boxers such as Amit Panghal, Md. Hussamuddin and Manish Kaushik but it never had a female boxing team. With Jaismine joining the Indian army, it is a clear indication that Army is preparing to field female boxers in national competitions.
