Her remarkable achievements include silver and bronze medals at the 2021 Sub-Junior National Games while being the sole representative from Telangana in these prestigious competitions. She is also one among the eight selected sports members and the only one from the Telangana State to be trained at the Sports Authority of India regional center, Sonipat in Haryana and aspires to compete at Asian Games, Archery World Cup, World Archery Championships, and in Olympics 2028.

Project Dhanush Shakti's overarching goal is to empower Taniparthi Chikitha to continue excelling in her archery pursuits and, in doing so, pave the way for other rural children to embrace sports as a viable career choice. The heart of the initiative lies in the provision of vital sports equipment to Chikitha which will enable her to further hone her skills and represent not only her individual potential but also the state of Telangana and the nation on international platforms.
