When kids my age were picking up toy cars, I used to buy toy guns.

As kids, we have all handled shot guns. From there on, there is no transition. It stays in the toy box. The idea is to get the transition and bridge the gap between the toy box and the shooting range.

When kids my age were picking up toy cars, I used to buy toy guns. So, I took up the sport more as a recreation than profession.

Sport is an important part of the development of kids, and hence, it should be made a part of their curriculum.

There was a time when my parents had to sell off a plot of land so that I can buy a rifle for competitive tournaments. After that we stayed in a rented house for the next 15 years.

I think country needs to have a sporting culture. I think if sports were taken as curriculum in school and are encouraged in right way like government of Maharashtra and Haryana have done given Marks for Sports and encouraging them with good jobs.
