Nikhat Zareen, Arjuna Awardee, Olympian, and Commonwealth Games boxing champion, interacted with personnel of the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) during an engaging motivational session at CISF Unit BIOM Bacheli.
Addressing the gathering, Nikhat Zareen highlighted the crucial role of discipline, consistency, a balanced diet, and regular physical training in achieving peak fitness and mental toughness. Drawing from her own journey as a two-time World Boxing Champion, she emphasised that sustained success—whether in sports or uniformed service—demands daily commitment and self-control.
Sharing insights into dealing with challenges and setbacks, she encouraged CISF personnel to adopt a sportsperson’s mindset during difficult phases by staying focused, resilient, and confident. She underlined that failures and low moments are integral to growth and must be used as stepping stones toward improvement rather than deterrents.
The interactive session witnessed enthusiastic participation from CISF personnel, who engaged with the champion boxer on topics ranging from fitness routines to mental conditioning and motivation under pressure. The interaction reinforced core values such as perseverance, self-belief, and dedication to duty—principles that resonate strongly across both competitive sports and security services.
The visit served as a source of inspiration for CISF personnel, strengthening morale and reaffirming the importance of physical fitness, mental resilience, and unwavering commitment in safeguarding national assets and security.
