This legendary player has laid the golden foundation of Indian shooting

India is still far behind in the category of most successful countries in the history of Olympic. This is the reason that whenever a player reaches the podium in the Mahakumbh of these games to be held once in four years, his respect in the country increases equally. There is probably a lot of improvement in our country today, but the situation was not like this until a decade ago. The players themselves were not convinced about the future of any sport in the country until someone achieves great achievements in it. India has achieved the highest quota shooting for the Tokyo Olympics, although Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore was the one who taught the Olympic podium in the game. Rathore created history in Athens Olympics

Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore won a silver medal in the Athens Olympic 2004 (Athens Olympic 2004) in shooting and created history as well. India had never won a silver medal in an individual sport before that. Earlier, KD Jadhav, Leander Paes and Karnam had managed to win medals in the Malevari Olympics, but everyone was named Bronze Medal. Rathore changed the status of shooting in the country by changing the color of the medal. He won a silver medal in the men's double trap event. Rathore gave Abhinav-Narang a lot of change in the country after shooting the Medal of Inspiration. People started to train children at an early age. Indian shooters also got confidence in themselves that they can illuminate the name of the country even on such a large scale. Apart from Rathore in 2004, players like Sanamacha Chanu, Kunjarani, Abhinav Bindra and Suma Shirur did well in these games but all of them were away from the medals in the final. However, Abhinav Bindra won the gold in the next Olympics. Bindra, who won the gold medal, had said, 'Rathore changed me. His silver medal gave me the courage to win the gold medal. After this, the process did not stop and Gagan Narang, who won the Bronze at the London Games, also considered Rathore as his ideal. Along with this, Vijay Kumar also took silver from Bindra and won the silver medal in London Games.

At the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the state Vardhan Singh Rathore was carrying the tricolor as the head of the Indian contingent at the March past in Sherwani, when he had confidence on his face and this confidence laid the burden of expectations on him. Perhaps under this burden, he was so subdued that he could not even reach the final, while Abhinav Bindra in Beijing won the hearts of entire India by targeting the gold medal. However, Rathore was not disappointed by this as he knew that he had set the stage for the coming generation.

There is a lot of hope from the Olympic targets in the Olympics: the seed sown of Rathore is giving fruits to the country today. This year, India has been far ahead in achieving Olympic quota. The country's 15 shooters have achieved the quota. This includes Manu Bhakar, Yashaswini in women's 10m pistol, Chinki in 25m pistol, Rahi, Sourav in men's 10m pistol, Abhishek, Divya in men's 10m rifle, Deepak, Apoorvi in female 10m rifle, Anjum, Sanjeev in three positions, Aishwarya, Tejaswini, Mehraj and Angad have secured quotas in the skit. Apart from these, two teams of India will get entry in the mixed event of pistol and rifle. India's shooter will claim the Olympic medal for 19 medals.
