Singh, said steps are being taken to ensure that the careers of the Indian shooters are not jeopardised.
"The IOA has been suspended by the IOC. We were the only association to boycott the IOA elections. Our affiliation to our international body ISSF hasn't been affected. There will be no double standards and we will follow the directives of the ISSF," said Raninder.
The NRAI president said the Returning Officer, retired Judge Mehtab Singh Gill has been given the option to conduct the elections as per the national sports code or any other process he feels suitable.
"Rule 14 of the NRAI constitution clearly states that the chairman/Returning Officer has the authority to select the method for the conduct of the elections. We have forwarded Mr. Gill the advisory by the sports ministry regarding the sports code. It is up to the Returning Officer to decide how he conducts the elections," said Raninder.
The NRAI president also said that the Indian shooters will be participating in the World Cup, as also other ISSF events, under the tricolour.
Meanwhile, sources close to the NRAI claimed that it had given affiliation to the two states to gain benefits in the elections.
