The National Rifle Association of India's Athletes Commission on Monday launched an inquiry into the scuffle involving two marksmen inside the Dr Karni Singh Shooting Range here, promising appropriate action at the earliest.
The Sports Authority of India (SAI) has cancelled the membership of the two marksmen -- Babar Khan and Yoginder Pal Singh -- while the national federation referred the matter to its Athletes Commission, headed by former international shooter Morad Ali Khan.
Ugly scenes were witnessed at the range on Sunday when the two errant shooters got into a fight after an argument regarding the scheduling of rounds.
"The process of inquiry has started and we will come out with the findings as soon as possible, and then pass our recommendation to the NRAI president for appropriate action," Morad told PTI.
"I will call not just the two shooters involved but all those present there at the time of incident, the inquiry will be very detailed."
