Abhinav Bindra, heading the five-member review committee to probe the shooters’ Rio Games debacle, has submitted it’s report to the National Rifle Association of India (NRAI) and recommended the apex body to “make it public in toto”.

While the panel wants the observations to be made public, one of the conditions laid out by NRAI while forming the panel was that it would remain confidential. The NRAI had said the mandate of the committee “is to examine and identify in a cold and ruthless manner” the causes behind shooting not securing any medal at the Rio Olympics.
The committee unanimously has recommended to the NRAI president to make the report public in toto.

The committee had also been mandated to recommend concrete steps that NRAI must immediately undertake to ensure that this is not repeated in future Olympics. The order empowered the committee to go into a wide range of factors affecting the performance of the athletes.
