Manisha, a second-grade student at Cox’s Bazar Government Central Primary School, has already achieved an extraordinary feat at the age of 10.

Her collection of awards includes 26 gold medals, six of which are from international competitions. She has also earned six silver and bronze medals from national and international tournaments.

With a passion for karate, a martial art that focuses on self-defense, Manisha dreams of achieving global recognition.

Speaking to Cox’s Bazar Life, she expressed her hope that her success will inspire other children to learn karate, as they, too, have the potential to win such prestigious medals.
