Pawan Singh has become the first shooting jury from India to get selected for the Olympics as ISSF appointed him to officiate in the upcoming 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Pawan will join the four-member team of the Result, Timing and Score (RTS) Jury member at the global sporting extravaganza next year.

Abhinav Bindra is of the opinion that only India is improving in shooting while all other countries are stagnated. The Olympics gold-medallist is hopeful that more Indian sportspersons will qualify for the upcoming Tokyo Olympics and then there will be more chances of winning medals.

Anjum Moudgil and Apurvi Chandela have secured a place in the 2020 Olympics after their performance at the World Championships. Moudgil won a silver and Chandela finished fourth in the women's 10m air rifle event of the ISSF World Championship on Monday, to make the cut for the 2020 Olympics.

Manu Bhaker has decided to pay equal attention to the 25m sport pistol category and her regular 10m air pistol event ahead of the coveted 2020 Tokyo Olympics. However, the teenager has insisted that everything will depend on the National Rifle Association of India’s (NRAI) selection procedures.
