Elated over being nominated to the Rajya Sabha by the Centre, sprint legend P T Usha on Thursday thanked supporters and well-wishers across the country and said their faith in her would go a long way in shaping her journey forward. 

"Elated by the wonderful wishes from all over India! Your support and faith in me will go a long way in shaping my journey forward from here. Ek Bharat Shrestha Bharat," Usha tweeted. 

 She also shared a photo of her cutting and sharing a cake with her husband and some others to mark the occasion. Soon after the announcement came last night, she, through her Twitter handle, also expressed her gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said she was "deeply touched" by his "kind words" about her. 

 "I will always give my best to any responsibility bestowed on me, and work towards the betterment of all of us Indians. Jai Hind," she tweeted on Wednesday. -- PTI
