Kolkata Karate Girl

Her father, a driver, died when she was 13. She has epilepsy but wanted to learn karate. She did and won medals in India and abroad. The US-based Independent Television Service or ITVS, that has won Emmys in the past, is working on a documentary on women who inspire which will now feature the story of Kolkata's 19-year-old Ayesha Noor.

With Munna Das of Madhyamgram, you don't want to be at the receiving end. That's what two men discovered while trying to molest the 17-year-old girl at the Doltala bus stop, 40 km north of Kolkata.

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, for the second time in less than a month, shared her story of a karate exponent from Bihar, whom she met during her trip to Kolkata in May. Ms Clinton told the audience in Washington about how confident and inspiring the girl was.
