History of Achievements of Abhinav Bindra:

Made a junior world record score of 597/600 in 2001 Munich World Cup and won bronze; gold in 2002 Manchester Commonwealth Games; became the first Indian shooter to win a World Championship gold; Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna in 2001.

Abhinav Bindra is the brightest star among a new breed of talented Indian shooters. Born on September 28, 1983, Bindra is quite often criticized for not delivering on the promise he showed as a child prodigy.

Coming from an affluent family and with the luxury of an indoor range in his backyard, Bindra proved to an early bird and, at 15, was the youngest participant at the 1998 Commonwealth Games. Bindra shot into limelight by winning a bronze in the 2001 Munich World Cup with a new junior world record score of 597/600.

In the 2002 Manchester Commonwealth Games, competing in his pet Air rifle event, Bindra won Gold in the Pairs event and Silver in the individual event. During a purple patch, Bindra won six gold medals at various international meets in the European Circuit in 2001. He was conferred the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna Award for the year 2001.

In the 2004 Athens Olympics, despite breaking the Olympic record Bindra failed to win a medal. But on July 24, 2006, Bindra became the first Indian shooter to win a World Championship gold in Zagreb. Dr. Karni Singh's silver in 1962 was the previous best by an Indian in a World Championship meet.

Abhinav wins gold!

The 25-year-old Abhinav was poise and grace personified as he talked about his attaining Olympic immortality and its possible ramifications in a country that remains almost biased towards cricket.

"I sincerely hope my medal changes the face of India's Olympic sports," the bespectacled shooter told reporters after winning India's first individual gold medal in the 10m Air Rifle event at the Beijing Shooting Range at the Beijing Olympics on Monday.

President, PM congratulate Bindra

Asked when he realised that he was at the threshold of history, Abhinav said, "I was not bothered about history. All I wanted to was to shoot aggressively and score well and that's exactly what I did.

"I started my sighting on a poor note but soon things started going my way and it remained so. I guess this was my day."

Abhinav, whose career at one stage was jeopardised by a nagging back injury, said it was not easy to keep himself keyed up all along.

"I worked hard, left home and trained in Germany [Images]. It only proves that if you keep working hard, you would have your day someday and fortunately, it was my day today.
"My parents, family and coaches stood by me all along and I owe it to them," he said.
