"My name is Karthika. I am currently in the Indian national camp."

She says that while she is preparing to represent India, she has been deeply disturbed by recent events involving her mother.

"The allegations against my coach are false."

Karthika strongly denies the allegations made against her coach.

According to her, her coach has never behaved inappropriately with her and has always supported her throughout her kabaddi journey.

She says she wants people to know that the allegations being circulated against him are not true from her perspective.

"My mother is trying to stop my progress."

Karthika claims that the purpose of these allegations is to affect her career and prevent her from progressing in kabaddi.

"My ATM card was taken."

Karthika further alleges that her mother repeatedly asked for her ATM card.

According to Karthika, approximately ₹15 lakh was withdrawn from her account over a period of three months.

She claims she has documents and transaction records to support these allegations.

ADT Sports has not independently verified these financial claims.

"My coach never took my money."

Responding to the allegations involving finances, Karthika says her coach has never taken any money from her.

She says she can provide evidence if required and insists that the accusations against him are false.
