National Shooting Championship Competitions: Ganemat Sekhon and Anantjeet Singh Naruka, India’s skeet shooters, added another feather to their cap, winning a maiden individual senior national title at the Karni Singh Shooting range, here on Wednesday.

Competing at the 66th National Shooting Championship Competitions (NSCC) for Shotgun events, Punjab’s Ganema and Rajasthan’s Anantjeet, took contrasting paths towards the same result-a coveted gold at the nationals.

Ganemat shot a below-par 116 in qualification and had to come through a five-way shoot-off for four final qualifying places, before shooting down 56 targets to win the 60-shot final. Qualifiers leader Zahra Deesawala was second with 55-hits while Sanjana Sood was third with 44.
