Jagatpura shooting range

Khelo India University Games Rajasthan: Olympian Sift Kaur Samra is confident that the shooting sport, which was discontinued as a medal event for both the 2022 Birmingham and 2026 Glasgow editions, will be included as a discipline when India hosts the Commonwealth Games at Ahmedabad in 2030.

Sift Kaur said that as India are hosting the 2030 CWG, national shooters will get a big chance to showcase their talent and secure a bagful of medals in front of their home crowd.

“I am thrilled that India is hosting the 2030 Commonwealth Games, and I am sure shooting will be included as an event. This is a fantastic opportunity for our national shooters to shine and bring home medals. I am also hoping that the event will lead to improved sports infrastructure, making it easier for aspiring athletes to learn and train,” Sift told SAI Media on Sunday.
