== Early life and background ==
Rakesh got into Gymnastics in the year 2003 after being inspired by his uncle Suvendu Patra, a former international gymnast in 2001. Rakesh has been working in the Indian Navy since 2010. His parents are unwell and Rakesh also has a sister whom he takes care of.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://fig-gymnastics.com/publicdir/athletes/bio_detail.php?id=26775 |title=PATRA Rakesh |website=fig-gymnastics.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180621143630/http://fig-gymnastics.com/publicdir/athletes/bio_detail.php?id=26775 |archive-date=2018-06-21}} </ref>

== Career ==
Ranked 25th, he narrowly missed the Olympic qualification for Rio, 2016, as only the top 24 in the world qualify for the Olympics. Any country’s withdrawal would have given him an entry into the games, but that did not happen. At the Asian Championships, Patra qualified for the final in the Men’s Rings apparatus and finished eighth in the final.
He strives for perfection and is adamant on winning a medal at Tokyo 2020. Recently, he spent 20 days on a high-performance stint in China and got the opportunity to work on his basics to improve at his sport. Rakesh looks up to five-time world champion and two-time Olympic champion, [[Kohei Uchimura]] for inspiration.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.firstpost.com/sports/commonwealth-games-2018-indian-gymnast-rakesh-patra-makes-it-to-final-in-rings-apparatus-event-4420125.html|title = Commonwealth Games 2018: Indian gymnast Rakesh Patra makes it to final in rings apparatus event}}</ref>
