Hills Live News, Guwahati, October 7: The Assam Jatiya Parishad (AJP) today felicitated Lovlina Borgohain, who brought glory to the country and Assam by winning the gold medal in the women’s 75-kg boxing category at the recently concluded Asian Games. A delegation of the party met the champion boxer at Azara and felicitated her for her achievement.
The delegation, led by AJP president Lurinjyoti Gogoi, congratulated Borgohain on her outstanding performance. The delegation also conveyed its respect and congratulations to her parents, Tiken Borgohain and Mamoni Borgohain, for their daughter’s achievement.
Speaking on the occasion, Gogoi said that Lovlina Borgohain had overcome numerous challenges and struggles to establish the strength and potential of Assam’s younger generation on the international sporting stage.
“Lovlina has become a source of inspiration and a role model for thousands of young people,” he said.
Extending his best wishes for Borgohain’s future sporting career, Gogoi expressed hope that her journey on the path to greater success would remain uninterrupted and that she would achieve her cherished goal at Los Angeles. He added that the blessings and good wishes of the people of Assam would always remain with her.
Expressing gratitude for the felicitation, Borgohain spoke about the love and affection she has received from the people of Assam. Recalling the late singer and cultural icon Zubeen Garg, she said, “Perhaps it was because of Zubeen Garg that I learnt to love Assam so deeply. The love and affection of the people of Assam cannot be compared with that of any other state. Perhaps Zubeen Garg showed us that path.”
Referring to the people of Assam calling her the “Golden Daughter”, Borgohain said she felt proud of the recognition.
The boxer also expressed her deep gratitude for the affection, greetings and support extended to her by the people of Assam following her success. She thanked the Assam Jatiya Parishad for the felicitation.
