 Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal felicitated double Olympic medalist Manu Baker at his residence in Delhi on August 16. He also presented her with a cheque of Rs 10 lakhs. Notably, Manu Bhaker scripted history when she became the first Indian to win two medals at the same Olympics. 
“Today, the people of the nation feel proud of Manu Bhaker...In the near future, she is going to win many more medals for the country. No doubt about it! She has the ability, potential, vision, dedication, devotion, commitment and hard work. I believe with a great sense of sincerity and commitment, Manu will shine again and again…,” said Sarbananda Sonowal. 
“I express my gratitude for the love and respect I am receiving. It has been a long journey for me till now. It has been 8.5 years for me in this sport. Since childhood, I was engaged in sports. I think it was a part of my preparation for this moment.  A lot of love and respect was given to me here. I feel I am part of this family as my father is a chief engineer in the merchant navy...This time I had only one aim- to perform as my performance in the Tokyo Olympics was not that good,” said Manu Bhaker.
