Nikhat said: "More than me, my father deserves all the medals that I have won yet because the society that I belong to does not permit women to play a male-dominated sport. Even after that, earning a name and fame in the sport was a big achievement for me. "I have only fought in the boxing ring, but my father has fought in real life."
