Google honours swimmer Arati Saha, 1st Indian sportswoman to be awarded the Padma Shri, know 7 facts
Saha was born in Kolkata on September 24, 1940, in a middle-class Bengali Hindu family. At the age of four years, Arati learned to swim on the banks of the Hooghly River. She was spotted by Sachin Nag, and later she was inspired by the ace Indian swimmer Mihir Sen to try to cross the English Channel.
After winning many state-level swimming competitions, under Nag's mentorship, Arati rose to the next level when she participated in the national competition in 1948 in Mumbai. She won silver in 100 metres freestyle and 200 metres breast stroke and won bronze in 200 metres freestyle. The following year, she claimed an all-India record.
