Going from one door to the other, the Rajnandgaon girl Renuka Yadav used to sell milk for survival while her parents worked as domestic help in the homes of other people. Not letting go of her passion for hockey, she has come a long way in becoming the first woman in Chhattisgarh to qualify for Olympics. In an interview with Times of India, she described the moment as her happiest, saying, “This is a golden moment of my life. We have got the opportunity to be at the Olympics after a long gap of 36 years. I am happy to be the first ever woman Olympian of Chhattisgarh.”
