The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) will meet top officials of the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) in New Delhi today to bring Shooting back on the 2022 Birmingham Commonwealth Games roster.

The IOA brass, including President Narinder Batra and Secretary-General, Rajeev Mehta, along with Sports Minister Kiren Rijiju will meet CGF President Louise Martin and CEO David Grevemberg to protest Shooting's exclusion from the CWG. The sport has been dropped owing to logistical issues cited by the local organising committee.

For the first time since 1974, Shooting has been excluded from the Games roster. In protest, the IOA had threatened to pull out of the Games if it was not reinstated.

Shooting has always been one of India's top medal contributors in the CWG. The discipline yielded 16 medals, including seven gold, at the last edition of the event at Gold Coast in Australia.
