Bindra remains India’s only individual gold medallist at Olympics but heading into the next Games, he is extremely hopeful of welcoming new entrants into what has so far been a “lonely club”.

“Going into the Olympic Games we have he the potential to win multiple gold medals, a realistic shot at winning medals at the Olympics,” Bindra said.

The number of Olympic quotas in shooting currently stands at a record 15 after a highly successful 2019 that saw Indians top all the Rifle-Pistol World Cups and the season-ending World Cup Finals.

This was after they drew a blank at the 2016 Rio Olympics, following which radical changes were recommended by a committee, headed by Bindra himself.

Indian shooting’s best show at the Olympics remains the two medals won at London in 2012.
