Pune: The Indian shooters will board the flight for Doha on Wednesday to take part in the Asian Championships with a mixture of excitement and apprehension.
Excitement because the quadrennial event from January 11 to 22 offers the last chance to win a few more Olympic quotas and apprehension due to a recent notification of the Customs department at the IGI airport in New Delhi.
The Customs, in its order, had said that air weapons without license would not be allowed to be imported following the Delhi High Court's ruling earlier this year, making it mandatory for anyone possessing an air gun to acquire license.
