You can call MC Mary Kom as one of the most successful boxers in the world. She has consistently won the World Championships not twice, but 4 times. She recently won the her 4th World Championship held at Ningbo City , China.
Wow, we have a winner here. So did you expect the Government to honor her with awards ? If you did expect, well you are wrong, the Government has consistently ignored and hasn’t even bothered to confer her their appreciation. Her grouse as well as mine is what does it take to get appreciation from the Government. A 100 titles ? A MS Dhoni with 1 Twenty Twenty World Cup gets the Khel Ratna , but here is someone who has won 4 boxing world championships and there is simply no way she would get an award ?
I would at the best call it discrimination in Sports. Time that MC Mary Kom gets her due. If she has to fight just like she does on the ring, then am sure the mandarins and ministers will wake up from their deep slumber.
Give them a punch Mary, they sure deserve it.
