Vinesh Phogat is an Indian freestyle wrestler who competes in the 48 kg category. She is a two-time Commonwealth Games gold medalist, a two-time Asian Games bronze medalist, and a World Championship bronze medalist. She is also the first Indian female wrestler to win a medal at the Olympics.

In 2016, Vinesh was made the brand ambassador of the scheme ‘Beti Bachao and Beti Padhao’ in Haryana. The scheme aims to promote the education and empowerment of girls in the state.

Sakshi Malik is an Indian freestyle wrestler who competes in the 58 kg category. She is a bronze medalist at the 2016 Summer Olympics, the first Indian female wrestler to win an Olympic medal. She is also a two-time Commonwealth Games gold medalist, a two-time Asian Games bronze medalist, and a World Championship bronze medalist.

Deepa Malik is an Indian para-athlete who competes in shot put, discus throw, and javelin throw. She is a four-time World Championship gold medalist, a three-time Paralympic gold medalist, and a two-time Asian Games gold medalist.
