Hathvago Boldance to Mauma Das.

- Distance- Raksha Shukla

Is there a wet difference in the eye?

Is the feeling too white?

Holy utterances emanate!

Yours, that! Is the name Veda or not?

The sun rose and set,

Does Seam regret it?

Green desire, sadness or tears

Is everything imprisoned in restraint?

- Shobhit Desai

Femininity is a triune confluence of civilization, culture and power. Valmiki created the ideal Sita while Veda Vyas created Draupadi. Today’s woman is creating her own. The address of the creator is the address of many achievements. Whether it is the spirit of hockey in the film 'Chak De India' or the sharp performance of the hockey team in the recent Olympics, it is all a matter of pride for the country. Bhavina Patel of Ahmedabad made history in the Paralympics held in Tokyo, winning a silver medal in the Paralympics. This is a matter of pride for Gujarat. With the help and inspiration of teachers and friends, he started playing. The announcement by the Gujarat government to give him Rs 3 crore is commendable and welcome. Elsewhere, there is a huge disparity in the income of female and male athletes. The income of male players is many times higher. Even so, women's self-confidence has not diminished. This share of Rahat Indori is definitely remembered for the women who struggled and became winners in the Paralympic Games.

Hum paron se nahi honslo se udte he '.

Women are coming forward in sports which is a good thing. The women of the country, who keep the family in one thread, are playing their part not only in the home-family but also in the sports world. In the field of sports, Sania Mirza has done a great job of changing the direction and status of women in India, which is known as 'Tennis Star'. Sania, who has been honored with the Arjuna Award, has also received the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna Award, Padma Shri and Padma Vibhushan. In 2012, India won gold in table tennis for the first time at the Commonwealth Games.

On the eve of Republic Day 2021, Mauma Das, a table tennis player born and raised in Calcutta, Bengal, who excelled in table tennis, was also honored with the Padma Shri award. Mauma, who was born in 19, has many records in table tennis. He has won many awards and honors. This includes the Commonwealth Games Gold Medal, the 2016 Arjuna Award. He holds the record for most gold wins in the Nationals, a record-breaking hat-trick of six times. He has won the most 6 gold medals in South Asia. Extremely diligent Mauma Das lets her racket talk more than she does. The goal is to show better performance, not praise. American wrestler Danny Gable is right when he says that 'Gold medals aren't really made of gold. They're made of sweat, determination and a hard-to-find alloy called guts'.

Mauma was married to Kanchan Chakraborty in 2012. Mauma Das's relationship with table tennis was suddenly formed by chance. Her parents enrolled her in a club to steer her in the right direction. Where the girl started learning table tennis. After a little experience he began to enjoy the game. So he started participating in various regional tournaments. From here his sports journey began. Mauma is a 14-year-old T.T. Started playing. Mauma's father Asit Kumar Das has made a very important contribution to the development of Mauma's table tennis skills. Mauma was coached by Jayant Pushilal early in his career. Apart from that Peter Engel of Germany also worked hard to sharpen his craft and sustain his success. World-renowned table tennis player Steffi Graf says: 'If you have never failed, you cannot properly measure success. My dad taught me that if you really want to reach your goals, you can't spend time worrying about winning or losing. The player should only focus on the game. '

At the World Championships in Manchester, in the 19th, Mauma made his first appearance in the field of sports by participating in table tennis for the first time and reached the third round. Ever since then, Mauma Das has consistently excelled in both individual and team competitions. Mauma won her first gold medal at the second children's event of the Asia International Sports Games-2000 in Yakutsk. He has played more than 200 international matches against 6 different countries. He has represented India in international table tennis events since the early 2000s. He also had to take a break for a while due to a minor injury. Mauma Das competed in the singles table tennis event at the 2008 Olympic Games. Throughout her career, Mauma Das gave Indian table tennis fans many shining moments that can be celebrated like a blanket. For example, he won 12 medals in the Commonwealth Games. By participating in both the Athens 2008 and Rio 2016 Olympics, Mauma helped India win gold for her first team at the 2012 Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast in Australia, her last major international competition. In 2012, she competed in the individual competition three times and set a record in 12 performances. Which can be considered the maximum for an Asian player in the world. In 2012, she reached the quarterfinals in the women's doubles event in partnership with Monica Batra. The first Indian tennis duo also won a silver medal at the 2014 Commonwealth Games for their amazing skills. The women's team has won several medals, including gold, in the 2012 Commonwealth Games. Mauma Das won her first national title at the 7th Senior National Table Tennis Championships in Lucknow in 2007.

Mauma says, "The period of 2017 was when the pace of my career slowed down. But my German mentor Peter Angel managed to get out of it. In addition to learning new techniques of tennis inspired me in many ways and actually helped me. They always told me that I should not doubt my game because I was growing up. He told me about the world class players from Germany who were 3-4 years old and even though they were children they were playing the game and were successful. After this I fell in love with tennis again '.

Mauma was very playful. Once while playing doubles in Singapore, Mauma and Madhurika were winning 10-2. The pair decided to spend some time calming down the growing excitement. When the game resumed, Mauma got sick. On the way back, the ball bounced off the top of the net and landed on the opponent's court. Which made the return of Singapore players almost impossible. When the Indian pair got a point guaranteeing victory, Mauma immediately raised her hands in regret instead of jumping for joy. Even after the victory, while shaking hands with the rival party, it seemed that Mauma was saying sorry. The spectators in the stadium appreciated his silent sensation.

Today, women in every field are showing their strength and ability. As Ravi Shankar Maharaj says, he is not 'weak' but 'strong' in the true sense. The biographies of women who received Padma Shri in 2021 are also unique. The struggle of many of these women is that some have worked as cleaners and some have even worked as laborers. But they did not accept defeat despite being uneducated. Gaining popularity through his skills, art and passion, he has proved himself by doing solid work. "Build your own dreams, or someone else will hire you to build theirs," says Farah Gray, an American writer, columnist and motivational speaker. Not to mention women's empowerment, we now have a responsibility to stay united and work together in the ongoing fight for the rights of women and girls around the world, so that every woman can live a full, healthy and constructive life. Let's give an open sky to the people and not a short sky seen from the window of the house and we should also flutter our wings in that open sky.
