Sonepat: Maharashtra's young table tennis players gave a good display of themselves, picking up four medals in the cadet, junior and sub-junior categories at the UTT National Ranking Table Tennis Championships (North Zone) at the DPS Hall in Sonepat, on Monday.

Dhruv Shah (cadet boys), Swastika Ghosh (junior girls), Taneesha Kotecha (sub-junior girls) picked up a silver each, while Jennifer Varghese fetched a bronze in the cadet girls category.

It was a collective show of display from the Maharashtra paddlers, with three of them storming into the finals. 

In the junior girls final, second seed Swastika gave a tough fight to top seed Anusha Kutumbale of Madhya Pradesh before going down 2-4.

The sub-junior girls crown went to Haryana's Suhana Saini who defeated Taneesha of Maharashtra 4-1. Taneesha began well and had her moments in the game but was undone by Suhana, who slowly had the match under her grip. 

In cadet boys final, Tamil Nadu’s Umesh Kumar emerged the winner after he defeated Dhruv Shah of Maharashtra 4-1, while Diya Bramhachary of West Bengal downed state mate Nandini Saha 4-2 for the cadet girls crown.

Umesh opened up a 3-0 lead but Dhruv fought back. The Maharashtra boy took the fourth game and challenged his opponent in the last game too, but the gap was too wide to cover as he settled for a silver.

In cadet girls, Jennifer Varghese of Maharashtra earned a bronze following a hard-fought 2-3 loss to West Bengal’s Nandini Saha in the semifinals.

Retaliating to these ‘unseen forces’ the Darwin Platform Chief emphasized that life threats and malicious campaigns, resulting from political vendetta make him more determined to fight the battle and expose them.  The whispers of a conspiracy began years ago, fueled by jealousy and fear of his growing influence in the 2000s. Coming from a Royal family of Sultanpur (Uttar Pradesh), his popularity in the state and Maharashtra unnerved many political parties that used to govern. Aligned with sacred lineage, his passion for nation-building and Hindutva made him popular among people and the BJP, however, this antagonized Congress and their current allies. Questions are many- Was the Congress party, in its bid to maintain its hold on power, orchestrating a campaign t...
