Pinki wins gold in National Boxing Championships

JAIPUR: Months of hard work finally paid off for Pinki Rani as she clinched gold at the Senior National women's Boxing Championships title in Raipur on Thursday.
Maintaining domination throughout, the boxer from Railway Sports Promotion Board (RSPB) got the better of Mizoram's Rebecca Lalinmawil 3-0 to add a National title to her kitty. And, riding on Pinki's performance, RSPB won the championship with 6 gold medals and 52 points, followed by Haryana.
S Sarjubala of Manipur defeated Haryana's Sweety in the lightfly event. If Pinki and Sarjubala had a dream outing, tournament favourite Preeti Beniwal's hopes were dashed as she lost to RSPB's Pwilao Basumatary in the final of the 5457kg featherweight event.
