Dear friends in the media, “I have not announced my retirement yet, and I have been misquoted,” the Manipur boxer stated. She added, “I would personally appear in front of the media whenever I wish to announce it, she continued”. She said, “I read some media reports claiming that I had declared my retirement, which is incorrect, the 41-year-old clarified”.

On January 24, 2024, I was motivating youngsters at a school event in Dibrugarh. I remarked, “I still have a hunger to achieve in sports, but the age limit in the Olympics does not allow me to participate, though I can carry on with my sport.”

I am still working on my fitness, and when I announce my retirement, I will notify everyone. Please rectify this, the Olympic medalist stated.
