Sarabjot Singh decided to reject government job
India's shooter Sarabjot Singh was offered a job by the Haryana government, but he decided to turn it down.
Winner of bronze medal in the mixed team 10m Air pistol event, with Manu Bhaker, India's shooter Sarabjot Singh was offered a job by the Haryana government, but he decided to turn it down. He doesn't think this is the right time for him to be taking up a government job, as he has not achieved his target yet.
Sarabjot revealed that although his family is keen to see him take up a decent job, shooting remains his top priority at the moment. "The job is good, but I will not take it right now. I want to focus on my shooting first," Sarabjot told reporters.
Sarabjot and Manu combined to take the Olympics mixed team bronze at the Paris Games but a third-place finish hasn't quenched the thirst that the former has for success at the highest level.
Sarabjot said he is aiming to shoot for gold at the LA Olympics in 2028. "I am yet to achieve my main goal. Hopefully I will complete my main goal in 2028. I used to write in my personal diary that I will give my personal best in Paris. However, I am yet to give my personal best. I want to shoot for gold in 2028," Sarabjot told India Today in an exclusive interview.
