contestants from 49 countries. I am excited and
humbled an elated Sridivya said, who secured a
gold medal in Kata category and a silver medal
in Fighting category. Winning international
medals is a huge morale booster as I prepare for
major international championships ahead,
including Tokyo Olympics, she remarked. Another
student Pavanika, an orphan belonging to the
primitive tribal group studying at Telangana
Tribal Welfare Residential School, Kothaguda,
Mahabubabad, clinched silver medals in both Kata
and Fighting categories. I never even dreamt
that I would cross the Indian borders and go to
Dubai to participate in an International Karate
Championship considering my poor tribal
background. Thanks to the chief minister K.
Chandrasekhar Rao for his encouragement and
support for overall development of tribal
children, particularly girls under the KG-PG
Mission and all this was made possible because
of the support of the government of Telangana .
