In letters addressed to both players, East Bengal president Murali Lal Lohia praised their \u201cinspirational journeys” and invited them to be honoured \u201cin a manner befitting their stature.”<\/p>\n

\u201cYour journey from our home state to the world stage is truly inspirational, especially for countless young girls who aspire to excel in sports,” Lohia wrote to Richa, adding that her success brought \u201can added sense of joy and pride to every Bengali.”<\/p>\n

In his note to Deepti, Lohia highlighted her deep connection with Bengal cricket:<\/p>\n
