National level shooter and Asian Championship silver medalist Areeba Khan is aiming to win a medal for the country in the 2024 Paris Olympics.
"My goal is the Olympics 2024 for which I'm preparing hard. I want to bring a medal for the country. I have participated in six national events and 14 international tournaments so far. I recently won a silver medal in the Asian Championship team event. My individual ranking was fifth in that competition in the juniors category," Khan told ANI.
The 18-year-old draws inspiration from her father and brother who were former shooters.
"My father and brother were national shooters from whom I got the inspiration to become a shooter.
Khan also seeks the support of the government to bring more laurels to the country.
