By Roopa Unnikrishnan| The Week (India) Verified IN 1998, I became the first Indian woman to win gold at the Commonwealth Games, in the 50m rifle prone position event. Since then, India has achieved significant successes in shooting, the latest being Manu Bhaker with two bronze medals in Paris. I am excited to see young Manu come into her own; her quiet confidence and focus shine through. We can expect many more accolades for her and I hope her success opens the floodgates for young Indian hopefuls.
