Once a friend of Aliqqa told her mother that the selection process would be held for the Asian games. Initially, her mom didn’t give much attention to it, but she said Aliqqa about it one day. The little girl really wanted to compete in it. At the time of selection, she was the youngest there to participate. Aliqqa says that she participated because she just wanted to show everyone that she is strong enough. She usually went forward and competed.
