General secretary of the central committee of YMA, Vanlalruata told PTI that they would hand over the pugilist a citation and cash award during the association's general conference, scheduled to begin from October 23 at Kawrtethawveng village in Mizoram-Tripura border's Mamit district.

"We do not have large amount of money to give her, but we wanted to congratulate her in front of the young Mizos as she has become a source of inspiration for the youths," Vanlalruata said.

Kom was earlier felicitated by Mizo Zirlai Pawl (MZP) or the Mizo students federation, during 'Zofest' held here in 2006.
