ABOUT
Kriti arrived home on Friday to a loud welcome. She arrived at Patna Airport. A sizable crowd had gathered at the airport to greet her. Kriti was greeted warmly by fans as soon as she stepped out of the airport.
Kriti spoke to the media and thanked her parents for encouraging her to pursue a career in athletics. “My parents have had a significant part in my current achievement.” “My coach also played a huge part because he gave me a machine costing lakhs of rupees for practise,” she explained. Kriti further expressed concern over the Bihar government’s apparent lack of cooperation.
“We lament that the Bihar government has not assisted us thus far.” We tried numerous times, but the state administration has done nothing to help the players advance in athletics, which is unfortunate,” she said. In response to Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s congratulations, Kriti stated, “If I have a chance, I would shortly see the Chief Minister.”
Kriti’s father, Lalan Singh, expressed his pride at his daughter’s accomplishment. He stated that Kriti has been interested in sports since she was a toddler.
