Union Sports Minister Anurag Thakur on August 3 felicitated Tokyo Olympic bronze medallist PV Sindhu in Delhi. He also felicitated Sindhu’s coach Park Tae-Sang. Union Culture and Tourism Minister G Kishan Reddy and Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman also felicitated the ace shuttler. Sindhu has become the first Indian woman to win two Olympic medals. She defeated China's He Bing Jiao in the bronze medal match. “I thank govt and sports authority for never saying no, whenever I asked for anything. I couldn't see a lot of spectators but I'm sure billions of people have shown their support to me in India. I want to dedicate it to them. I thank my parents for their efforts and sacrifices,” said Sindhu.
