London Olympics bronze medallist Gagan Narang’s quest for glory took another significant step when he signed up a long-term contract with former World champion Peter Sidi of Hungary with the specific intention of producing Olympic medallists.
The 45-year-old Hungarian shooter is in the City training a select batch of 30 shooters (both boys and girls) in rifle and pistol categories, essentially picked from the national selection trials and dreaming big.
“Me and Sidi have competed together at many competitions. He is a dedicated master at work. The shooters are fortunate to be able to get the knowledge. There will be a special session for the budding and upcoming shooters of Telangana during the camp,” Gagan explained in a chat with The Hindu.
