The Indian women’s cricket team, winners of 2025 Women’s World Cup, met Prime Minister Narendra Modi at his residence on Wednesday, November 5.

During the interaction, players shared their experiences from the tournament, discussing their challenges and memorable moments. After the meeting, the team joined the Prime Minister for a meal.

A video from the event has gone viral on social media, showing PM Modi personally serving food to Pratika Rawal, who was seated in a wheelchair.

Noticing that the injured cricketer was unable to help herself, the Prime Minister walked up to her, asked what her favorite dish was, and served it himself - a gesture that has earned widespread admiration online.

Pratika Rawal sustained an injury during India’s match against Bangladesh at the DY Patil Stadium, Navi Mumbai.

The ground was slippery due to rain, and while fielding near the boundary, she slipped and twisted her foot. The injury forced her out of the remainder of the tournament.
