Gayathri Wins Double Bronze in Water Sports

Gayathri Wins Double Bronze in Water Sports

Nagidi Gayathri, a young athlete from Andhra Pradesh, won two bronze medals in water sports at a big national competition in Madhya Pradesh.

She competed in two different events: canoe slalom and kayak cross, and she came in third place in both.

This is a big deal because she is from a small fishing village and has worked very hard to get this far.

Her success shows that Andhra Pradesh is getting better at water sports, and it inspires other young people from similar backgrounds to try these sports too.

The competition happened over four days in January 2026, and many top athletes from all over India were there.

The president of the Andhra Pradesh Canoeing and Kayaking Association congratulated her and said her success is a great example for other young athletes.
