Delhi World Cup: English shooters' quarantine halved to 7 days
NEW DELHI: In a big respite for English shooters preparing to compete at next month's New Delhi's World Cup, India's union health ministry has agreed to halve the 14-day quarantine period, a privilege that was granted to the England cricket team now playing in India at the moment. English shooters had requested, through the National Rifle Association of India (NRAI), for a seven-day quarantine, citing the example of their national cricket team. The NRAI, in turn, had forwarded the request to the Union health ministry, which eventually agreed to halve it, said a source. "The health ministry has agreed to reduce the quarantine period for English shooter to seven days. The team will be quarantined at the official team hotel near Dr Karni Singh Shooting Ranges for a week," the source told IANS. IANS
