‘I am feeling very grateful and honored after getting awarded by such a great personality, She said. Urging the people to take interest in fencing, she added that it is a sword sport that is safe as it is played with protection but it is an unpopular game in India.
“I started playing Fencing in 5th standard, I practiced in Nagpur for 3 years and then I joined Khelo India where I was under the guidance of great coaches. It was the biggest comeback of mine as my game was a little bit disturbed in the lockdown,” said Sharwari.
