At 13 when she took up the bow and arrow in her hands in 1994, nobody could even guess she would become the poster-lady of Indian archery in the subsequent years. Besides, she would also kindle the flame of archery among the Indian women. Exactly 18 years later in 2012, Chekrovolu Swuro of Dzulhami hamlet of Phek district of Nagaland represented India in the London Olympics. She became the second person since 1948 to represent Nagaland in the Olympics.

Way back in 1948, Dr. T. Ao led a barefoot Indian football team to become the first Olympian from the Northeast. Shekrovolu again brought glory to Nagaland in particular and the Northeast as a whole after 71-years. For this, she merits a special mention.
