Solution
Good morning everyone!
Respected principal, teachers and my dear friends. I, Priya, the Head girl of the school is going to deliver a speech on Sakshi Malik.
On the day of Raksha Bandhan, far away in Rio de Janeiro, a 23-year old wrestler Sakshi malik, made the nation proud by winning a bronze medal. Malik became the first female Indian wrestler who has bagged a medal at the Olympics.
Sakshi Malik, the daughter of a bus conductor, comes from a small district in Haryana. She started training at the age of 12. Malik and her coach, Ishwar Dahiya, faced many problems during the initial stages of the former's career as the conservative mentality of the society thought that wrestling was not meant for girls. It was a male sport.
Not only has she proved to be one of the best wrestlers in the world, she has also fought off long odds, bureaucratic obstacles, lack of facilities, and the conservative Indian society. Sakshi taught the nation that women in the country need support and not protection. We are proud to be the citizen of the nation where women like Sakshi Malik live.
