training was stopped due to corona
In the last few years, due to the prevailing conditions in Srinagar and Corona, their preparations had stopped. She could not go to the academy for training. It seemed that she would ever be able to play or not, but her parents, her coach Rameez and national coach Kuldeep Handu kept encouraging her and today she has also won gold medal.

Sadia’s father told that creating a sports environment for the daughter was not an easy task. When Sadia told me that Papa, I want to play this game. So at first I felt strange, there is such an atmosphere in Kashmir that when a girl goes to play, people say – she is a girl, don’t feed her.

With the support of parents, the child will grow
But all these things were not going to make any difference to me, because I was sure that if I stayed with Sadia, my daughter would go ahead. The child will progress only when there is the support of the parents. The most difficult thing for a girl is to get out of the house. For which the support of parents becomes very important.
