This is exactly what we need more of — schools that encourage sports. So many talented kids in India never get the platform they deserve. Tithi's discipline and hard work are paying off. Wish her all the best for the nationals! 🌟
Brilliant performance! It's especially impressive that she's doing this while preparing for Class XII boards. My sister teaches at a school in Pune and she always says students who do sports manage their time better. Tithi is proof of that. Also great to see Siddhant's bronze in the 400m — well done to both!
Great to see Navi Mumbai talent shine. But I hope the school also gives equal importance to her academics during this crucial board year. Sometimes students get caught up in sports and neglect studies. That said, the fact that she's managing both shows she's exceptional. All the best at nationals!
Impressive dedication! It's not every day you see students excel in field events like shot put and discus at such a young age. Her ability to win gold in both events shows real versatility. Wishing Tithi the best at the nationals! 💪
So proud of our Maharashtrian athletes! Tithi's journey shows that with the right support from school and family, our students can achieve anything. Hope the CBSE Nationals gives her a bigger platform to showcase her talent. Best wishes to Tithi and Siddhant! 🎉
