Pinki Pramanik Biography

Pinki Pramanik is one of the most popular and richest Athletics Competitor who was born on April 10, 1986 in Purulia, West Bengal, India. Pinki Pramanik, a Indian track and field athlete, was born 10 April 1986 in Purulia. She is a specialist in the 800m and 400m. Pramanik was a member of the 4x400m relay team that won silver at the 2006 Commonwealth Games and gold at 2006 Asian Games. She also won gold at 2005 Asian Indoor Games. She won the 400 and 800 m events as well as relay at the South Asian Games 2006.

Avatar Singh, the power broker and husband to Jyotirmoyee Sukdar, was accused of trying to frame her in connection to a land dispute. She was awarded the award by the West Bengal government in recognition of her outstanding performance at the South Asian Games and Asian Games in 2006.

At Bangalore’s Asian Grand Prix meeting in May that year she won the 800 m and improved her 400 m personal best, winning in 52.46 seconds. A few months later she marked herself out as one of the region’s best runners at the 2006 South Asian Games: she won the 400 and 800 m gold medals and headed the relay team for a third gold. However, she was disappointed that she had not improved her time and said that she expected greater competition from the Sri Lankan athletes.

A severe foot injury caused Pramanik to miss much of the 2007 season. She had returned to fitness by August and began competing at regional meeting and recorded 11.07 seconds in the 100 metres in Kolkata. She set her sights on winning at the 2008 Indian Inter-State championships in order to qualify for the 2008 Summer Olympics. However, she was struck by injury again and missed the championships due to a hamstring problem.

She also won indoors a medal when she was part of the 4x400m relay team at 2005 Asian Indoor Games. She competed at the All-India Open National Championships and won 400 and 800 m golds. She competed well at the 2006 Commonwealth Games, her first appearance at the world senior-level. She reached the 800 m semi finals in a personal best 2:03.83 and won a silver medal for India along with Rajwinder Kaur and Chitra Soman in the 4x400m relay.

However, there was some confusion about whether she was born in 1987 or 1986.

The following year, she moved up to the senior division and won two bronzes at the Asian Indoor Athletics Championships 2004. Her career was put at risk by an attack in late 2004 where a group youths placed a gun on her, and called police. Eyewitnesses confirmed that she was harassed by the youths and that they had taken the gun from her bag. She was then released without charges. To recover from the trauma, she took three months off of competition.

She was selected to represent her continent at the 2006 IAAF World Cup and finished in seventh place for Asia in the 800 m race. She attended her first Asian Games later that year, competing the 400 m and the relay. She reached the individual final, but just missed out on medal, finishing two hundredths of a second behind Japan’s Asami Tanno. Greater success came in the relay: running with Sathi Geetha, Chitra Soman and Manjeet Kaur, the women’s team took India’s only athletics gold of Games.
