We all know about Babita and Geeta's journey in wrestling and their journey which was also shown in Aamir Khan's famous flick "Dangal", Ritika also followed their footsteps and joined wrestling. Reacting to the situation, Union Minister of State for Road Transport and Highways, VK Singh said that it "terrible" news.
Terrible news that we lost #RitikaPhogat who had a brilliant career ahead. The world has changed from where it was some decades ago. Athletes are facing pressures which were not there earlier. An essential part of their training should be to deal with these pressures.
