Indian women are going places and there’s no doubt about that. Climbing the stairs of success and fame, sportswomen of India are proving their worth in a field which is mostly considered to be a male-dominated area.
Adding to the same list, Bala Devi Ngangom of India, who plays in the Bengaluru Football Club, has recently been roped into the Scottish football club, Rangers. The female footballer, who is considered to be the best among all her peers across the nation with 52 goal hits in her total 58 matches, will become the first Indian woman to be given the opportunity to play professionally outside India.
