Jaipur, Oct 15 (SocialNews.XYZ) As more and more Indian female athletes break the glass ceiling, ASICS, a running shoes and other athletic footwear manufacturer, on Tuesday roped in ace India paddler Manika Batra as its new face as she launched the brands latest store here.
The athlete who put the Indian flag on the map during the 2018 Commonwealth Games in Australia was delighted to be associated with ASICS.
