Replying to another question, she said the pain of not getting an Olympic medal subsided that very day when the citizens of the country showered love on her after she landed at the airport.”I have to reduce their (people) pain and it is my responsibility,” she added.”I am 30 years old and I have come through many challenges. When people are with you, one can overcome any challenge,” Phogat said.Replying to another question on contesting the elections, she said, “I am feeling happy and I will try to live up to their expectations.”Phogat became the first Indian woman wrestler to reach the Olympics final, the stage where she was disqualified in Paris after being found overweight by about 100 grams in her 50-kilogramme category weigh-in. She subsequently announced her retirement from the sport.While the wrestler hails from Balali in Charkhi Dadri district, her in-laws’ home town is Julana.
