Shooting News: Compulsory shooting camp postponed by NRAI amid COVID-19 scare

The National Rifles Association of India has postponed the compulsory training camp for its Olympic core group after taking into the account the Covid-19 pandemic. Recently, a shooting coach at the camp’s venue - Dr. Karni Singh Range - tested positive for Covid-19, but this will not force a closure of the facility. A handful of shooters, part of the core group, have been training at the facility since it was reopened for use on 8 July and they are likely to continue with their daily practice by adhering to the health and safety protocols. But the latest development has come as a setback to the NRAI’s quest to arrange the camp from Saturday.
