In memory of H.E. Raja Randhir Singh
The European Shooting Confederation has received the news of the passing of H.E. Raja Randhir Singh, former President of the Olympic Council of Asia and Member of the International Olympic Committee, with profound sadness and deep sorrow.
On behalf of the entire European shooting community, the ESC extends its heartfelt condolences to the Asian Shooting Confederation, the National Rifle Association of India.
H.E. Raja Randhir Singh was a legendary figure. As a trap and skeet shooter, he represented India at five Olympic Games (1968–1984). His historic trap gold at the 1978 Asian Games made him India’s first-ever shooting gold medalist at the Games, inspiring generations of athletes. Later, he achieved a unique milestone by becoming the first person to actively compete in the Asian Games while simultaneously serving as Secretary General of the OCA.
The ESC joins the sporting community in mourning this immense loss. May his family, friends, and colleagues find strength, and may his extraordinary legacy and lifelong dedication to sport live on forever.
