Gun for Glory: National award a glorious validation for Gagan Narang and Pawan Singh's vision
The HinduThe vision of Gagan Narang and Pawan Singh, who initiated Gun for Glory in 2011, to make shooting easily accessible for everyone, has been a roaring success, as hundreds have been driven to world class performances and international medals. Commenting that the award was a huge appreciation that would further fuel the dream of guiding future champions to Olympic glory, the former World and Olympic medallist Gagan said that it was both "an honour and a responsibility’’. In an attempt to give something back to the sport, Gagan said that he invested all his cash award from the 2010 Commonwealth Games when he won four gold medals, in starting a project with Pawan Singh. "We hope this award inspires others to come forward and support us in our endeavour," Gagan said.
