Hailing From Gujarat's 'Mini Africa', Judoka Shahin Darjada Ready For Bigger Challenges After KIYG Glory
One would mistakenly count Shahin Darjada, seated with cornrows decorated with beads on her head, as some sports fan enjoying an outing at the indoor hall of the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium where the judo competitions of the ongoing Khelo India Youth Games are being held. Hailing from Jambur village, popularly known as the 'Mini Africa' of Gujarat, Shahin walked away with a gold medal in the 57kg category with a convincing win over Himachal Pradesh's Rupanshi in the final.
