TRAINING CHALLENGES
After she won a gold medal at the 2018 Asian Para Games in Indonesia, she spoke about the challenges she had faced training in her home province of Alborz, Islamic Republic of Iran. "Alborz can be considered one of the few provinces in the country where the issue of supporting the impaired is not raised at all by the authorities. We face many transportation problems and we have to pay for our travel from our own pockets. Fortunately, we witnessed the talent of some of the delegates from Alborz Province at the [2018] Asian Games in Indonesia. Undoubtedly, if there were more equipment and facilities available, then in future we would see more success from Para athletes in the province." (qudsonline.ir, 20 Oct 2018; irisfd.ir, 17 Oct 2018)

EDUCATION
