PM commends the players for Overcoming Challenges, Building Confidence, Showcasing Talent and National Pride
Hard Work ensures success beyond the sports field and in life: PM
The Team’s Achievements inspires everyone, highlights the strength and resilience of India’s Youth: PM

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi interacted with the Indian Blind Women’s T20 World Cup Champions at 7, Lok Kalyan Marg, New Delhi yesterday. Shri Modi engaged warmly with the players, acknowledging their determination and encouraging them to continue their journey with confidence and resilience. He emphasized that those who move forward through hard work never fail, not only on the sports field but also in life. He noted that the players had created their own identity, which had strengthened their self-confidence.

Highlighting the significance of 150 years of Vande Mataram, Shri Modi observed that the team’s spirit reflects the values of unity and national pride. He appreciated the musical talent of one of the players who sang devotional verses, connecting it with his own association with Kashi.

In a light-hearted exchange, the Prime Minister compared the team’s versatility to politics, remarking that just as in politics individuals take on different roles such as minister, MLA, or MP, the players too were all-rounders.

The players shared personal stories of overcoming challenges, including societal prejudices and family hardships. One player recalled her late father’s dream of seeing her succeed and expressed that meeting the Prime Minister fulfilled that dream.

The Prime Minister reassured the team that their success is an inspiration not only for the differently-abled but for all citizens of India. He emphasized that their achievements demonstrate the strength and resilience of India’s youth. He expressed pride that the country is moving forward with such courage and determination in its children.

Shri Modi concluded the interaction by extending his best wishes to the team, lauding their role in raising India’s profile globally and motivating countless others through their dedication and spirit.
