The National Rifle Association of India (NRAI) announced that it would be taking care of the expenses of 14 shooters who would be competing in the non-Olympic events. The Union Government, through the Sports Authority of India (SAI) would be funding the expenses of the 37 shooters competing in the Olympic events.
The secretary general of the NRAI, Sultan Singh emphasised that it was important to back the young shooters in non-Olympic events and give them quality exposure.
The non-Olympic events are still part of the schedule in the World Championship and Asian Games.
The Indian contingent will also have 15-member support staff, including coaches, physios and trainers.
