Yet another bronze, yet another proud moment for India!!
Weightlifter Bindyarani Devi displayed her skills on Tuesday by winning the bronze medal in the fiercely contested women's 55kg category at the prestigious IWF World Cup. Bindya, who won the silver medal at the Commonwealth Games, is well-known for her excellent performance even though she was competing in a weight class that was not Olympic.
The Indian weightlifter recorded 110 kg and 113 kg in her first two attempts.
Nevertheless, Bindyarani's last effort with a clean and jerk weight of 119 kg was not successful. She lifted an incredible 196 kg (83 kg in the snatch and 113 kg in the clean and jerk) with unwavering strength and commitment, earning her a rightful place on the podium. It should be noted that she won the silver medal in the clean and jerk event, demonstrating her exceptional strength with a noteworthy lift of 113 kg. With a heart filled with pride, her mother said, "Even though she missed the gold medal, she put in efforts to get second place. I will tell her to work harder for a gold medal next time. Hope she reaches Olympics." And an ecstatic father voices his happiness, "We prayed to God, & when she won, we all felt extremely happy."
In the world of women could achieve anything and go to any lengths, Bindyarani is standing up to her potentials and an inspirational figure for all the girls out there.🤩🌟 In the women's 59kg Olympic Qualification Ranking, Bindyarani Devi is ranked 29th.
In the women's 49kg competition on Monday, Mirabai Chanu placed 12th in Phuket. She is currently rated second overall, making it very likely that she will earn an Olympic quota for India in Paris in 2024.
