The Railways Sports Promotion Board (RSPB) clinched the team title at the Elite Women’s Boxing Tournament on Tuesday, bagging nine medals including three gold, three silver and three bronze, as several of India’s top female boxers delivered strong performances.

Among RSPB’s gold medal winners was Babirojsana Chanu (57kg), who scored a commanding 5:0 victory over Kamaljeet Kaur of All India Police. Prachi (60kg) and Jyoti (51kg) also struck gold, with Jyoti declared the winner after Telangana’s Nikhat Zareen withdrew due to injury.

World and Commonwealth Games champion Nitu Ghanghas (Haryana) took the 48kg crown with a 4:1 split decision against Chanchal of SAI NCOE. Olympic bronze medallist Lovlina Borgohain, representing the TOPS core group, was handed a walkover win in the 75kg final following Lashu Yadav’s withdrawal.

Lovlina expressed satisfaction with her preparation ahead of the World Championships in September, calling the tournament “an intense and motivating experience.”

“It’s the perfect start before I head overseas for the next phase of my training. The competition here was tough and that only strengthens my resolve,” said Lovlina after securing her title.

World champion Saweety Boora, representing SAI NCOE, also triumphed with a convincing 5:0 win over RSPB’s Alfiya in the heavyweight division. Her win contributed to SAI NCOE’s impressive medal haul of seven, including two gold.

The Target Olympic Podium Scheme (TOPS) Core and Development squad added three gold medals to complete the top-three finishers among units. Preeti won the 54kg title, while former Youth world champion Ankushita Boro (65kg) overcame Railways’ Shashi 3:2 in a close contest.

SAI NCOE’s Ritika took gold in the 80+kg category, while Delhi’s Shivani stood atop the podium in the 70kg division.
