NRAI: No Extra Assurances for Bangladesh Shooters' India Trip, Unlike Cricket Team
- •NRAI Joint Secretary Pawan Singh confirmed Bangladeshi shooters' participation in the Asian Shooting Championships in New Delhi was a routine international entry.
- •Bangladesh's entry was cleared well in advance, nearly a month before the championship entries closed, with standard approvals granted without issue.
- •The Bangladesh federation or government did not request any additional security assurances from the NRAI beyond standard strict protocols.
- •NRAI follows stringent procedures for firearms handling and athlete movement, receiving full support from the Government of India.
- •This contrasts with Bangladesh's recent decision to withdraw its cricket team from the ICC Men's T20 World Cup in India citing safety concerns.
Why It Matters: NRAI confirms routine entry for Bangladesh shooters, no security concerns, unlike cricket team's withdrawal.
