New Delhi: After studying some difficult lessons during the Olympic debut in Tokyo, Manu Bhaker’s Shooter gun has decided to return to the Junior Circuit for the first time since 2018.
He will return to the competition mode this month, traveling to Peru for the Issf Junior World Championship in Five.
However, Ronak Pandit, the coach attached to Manu for the Olympic campaign, believed that the 19-year-old had to take the time to first improve his technical shortcomings.
“I don’t know who made this decision for him,” said Pandit, who has acted as a high-performance manager of the National Squad in the past, talking to Timesofindia.com.
Manu will shoot as many as five events in the Junior World Championships – 10M water pistols, a 25m sports gun, a mixture of 10 M air gun, 10m women’s team and 25m women’s team.

“Some technical problems he needs to do, which we don’t have time to do before Tokyo, I have made a plan for them, both in 10 m and 25m; things like – for how long he needs to take a break, how to continue after That.
I have given him a detailed program, that every time you are ready to start, let me know, we will accept it and all that.
But he didn’t bother contacting me, “Pandit he told Timesofindia.com.
“So I’m not in a position to say anything, unless I want him to work on some of the shortcomings we have faced.” The effort to contact Manu to respond to Pandit’s advice was unsuccessful.
Manu has failed to make it to the 10 M Final Air gun and 25 million gun events at the Tokyo Olympics, in addition to skipping into the final of the 10M mixed team also with Saurabh Chaudhary.
Ronak entertaining Manu after failing to enter one of the finals in the Tokyothe match ended with a sorry for a teenager, with the news about him falling with Jaspal coach Rana being intended and confirmed in Tokyo by the Association of Rifle National India, Reninder Singinder, who also explained that nothing can be forced to work together.
Athletes and trainers need to be “willing to work with each other”.
In other years, the match quota for the Paris Olympics 2024 will begin, and Pandit believes now is the time for shooters to overcome their shortcomings before entering the competition.
“If we don’t use this time to sort our physical and technical shortcomings, when will we do it?” He asked.
Pandit, in fact, not their words by saying that Manu “is not ready to compete” at this stage.

As far as I know, he is not ready to compete.
He has a technical problem, which needs to be completed before athletes.
Can begin to compete again,” Pandit, who married a former world gun shooter No.

“So I think it’s time for every time I first decide what our main goal and we work towards the main goal.
Then, if this competition falls with our goal, you can play.
But if not, then someone must jump.” You can’t jump And jumping from one competition to another thinks you are super humans (which) don’t.
