Ashwini Ponnappa was in the news recently when she voiced her opinions on the ongoing #MeToo movement. After Ponnappa's former doubles partner Jwala Gutta, alleged mental harassment at the hand of the national coach, Ashwini Ponnappa said "In a nation like India, you need to be tough and careful as well.
