Overjoyed with the spectacular achievement of weightlifter Saikhom Mirabai Chanu, who won the first gold for India at the 21st edition of the Commonwealth Games on Thursday, the people of Manipur want a Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) post for her so she could stay in the state. Chanu, who set a new Games record with her power-packed performance in the women's 48 kilogram category in Australia's Gold Coast, is from Poirou Khongjin in Thoubal district and is currently employed in the Indian Railways.
