The Nepal Karate Federation has honored Erica Gurung, who won the bronze medal in the World Karate Championship, with cash. Erica, who won a bronze medal in the championship in Morocco, was honored by the association with 2 lakh cash on Sunday.

Yuvraj Lama, the president of the federation, conferred the honor on him. "The good results of Karate have encouraged the new players," said Erica, "There is still a medal to be won for Nepal." I will work harder in the future.' 

'There was no player who won all the competitions in Nepal before. Now Erika has come but the state has not evaluated her properly," President Lama said, "We are proud of the medals won by our athletes even in difficult times. We have the world's top class players.' 

Erika is ranked 27th in the world karate ranking. She has been playing karate for the last 9 years and has won 8 international competitions.
