Pakistan Army’s Major Saiqa Gulzar has become a shining star in the country after she bagged a gold medal during her training in the United States of America.

Saiqa, who belongs to a middle-class Christian family from Vehari – a developing city about 100 kilometers from Multan, was the top contender among the soldiers from 52 countries.

Saiqa’s father, Gulzar Masih Sidhu, is a government teacher who worked very hard to get her daughter enrolled in Pakistan Army.

Major Saiqa is now being hailed as a hero on social media for her resilience and strength that led her to the top.

Here’s how Twitter reacted to Major Saiqa’s feat:
