Pinki Tripura of Hokutwisa Clinches Bronze at Muaythai National Championship 2025

Pinki Tripura, a rising combat sports athlete from Hokutwisa in Tripura, has brought recognition to the state by securing a bronze medal at the Muaythai Boxing National Championship 2025. Representing Tripura on the national stage, Pinki’s performance stood out in a tournament that saw participation from top-level fighters across the country.

Though details of her personal background remain limited in public media, Pinki is believed to be one of the emerging talents shaped by Tripura’s growing grassroots combat sports ecosystem. Over recent years, Muaythai has steadily gained traction in the state, with several local training centres nurturing athletes to compete at national and international levels.

Her journey to the podium was hard-earned, navigating through multiple intense bouts under the standard rules of Muaythai—one of the most physically demanding martial arts. Coaches and sports officials from Tripura have praised her focus, discipline, and fighting spirit, which led her to secure a podium finish despite the highly competitive field.

Pinki’s achievement is seen as a motivating force for other young athletes from the state, especially young women stepping into combat sports. It also underscores the growing potential of Northeast India as a talent hub in disciplines like Muaythai, kickboxing, and MMA.

As Tripura continues to invest in youth and sports development, Pinki’s medal adds to the momentum, highlighting the need for sustained support, training infrastructure, and visibility for regional athletes.
