OP Jaisha: The Long-Distance Runner Who Fought Extreme Poverty, Made India Proud At Asian Games

OP Jaisha, who is a two-time medallist at Asian Games, fought extreme poverty in her childhood. Born in Wayanad district in Kerala, Jaisha's entire family sold cow's milk for survival. Jaisha used to deliver cow's milk at places which were 1.5 kms away from her village, not once, but multiple times in a day. Her father met with a bus accident when she was 5 and was bed-ridden. Jaisha, who developed an interest in running, made India proud on many occasions. She won a bronze medal at the 2006 Asian Games and went on to win another bronze medal at 2014 Asian Games. In an exclusive interaction with timesnownews.com as a part of a Times Now initiative – 'Indian Superwomen: The Path To Glory' – presented by Morpheus Dare To Dream Music Cards, Jaisha spoke about her struggles and how she developed an interest in running. #Morpheus #MorpheusDareToDream #Success #Achievers #DareToDream #WomensDay #opjaisha #indiansuperwomen #runneropjaisha Times Now - Times Now News channel examines news with in-depth analysis.
