Hima Das Complete Bio & Career

Hima was born and raised in a small village in Assam. She was born in a poor family but was good in sports and started football along with boys. She soon realized that women’s football is not going to earn her any recognition. She then with the help of her PE teacher named Shamsul Hoque started training in sprinting. 
 
She earned a niche for herself at the junior level and finally competed at the 2018 Commonwealth Games. She couldn’t bring back medals but showed that she has the potential to win medals for her country. The very same year, she created history after she won the gold medal at World U-20 Championships 2018 in 400m. She thereby became the first Indian sprinter to win a gold medal at an international event. She represented India at the 2018 Asian Games in 4*400m Women’s Team, Mixed Team. She along with her team won the Gold medal in both the events. She also won Silver medal at the 400m sprint and thereby also created the national record by clocking 50.79s.
 
After a great 2018 season the expectation were high from her and she didn’t disappoint as she won as many as 5 Gold medals at the international level. She was congratulated by celebrities from various fields for her achievement and now all eyes will be on her to win an Olympic medal at the 2020 Olympics, Tokyo. She too has vowed to win more and more medals for her country. It is safe to say that she is arguably the best women athlete that India has ever produced.
