Ronak Riyaz, A Kashmiri Girl Makes A Global Mark In Martial Arts.

 
Ronak Reyaz from village Magraypora at Sopore in Baramulla district .
 
 
Baramulla had no academy where sportspersons could train, Ronak said, urging the government to set up one in her district where they could practice. Ronak, 16, a Class X student at SRM Welkin, Sopore, has won many national and international competitions. Her hard work finally paid off in 2018 when she won the fourth International Thang Ta Championship. She clinched a gold in the fifth International Thang Ta Championship in South Korea. But the road ahead does not seem easy. Her constant worry is who will fund her next event.
 
Her school also had not been supportive and she had, time and again, been asked to give up training and concentrate on her studies, said her mother. Ronak, however, says she manages and balances both studies and sports well. She is currently a blue belt holder and has a long way to earn a black belt.
