More athletes reach Village

Shooters Manavjit Singh Sandhu, Ronjan Sodhi, Shagun Chowdhary and Joydeep Karmakar joined Olympic champion Abhinav Bindra at the Games Village in London on Tuesday.

The deputy Chef de Mission, Brig. P.K. Muralidharan Raja stated in a release that the Games Village was getting its finishing touches, with workers attending to the job round the clock to ensure completion of all projects before the opening ceremony on July 27.

While the Indian archers had a full-fledged training stint at the Lord’s cricket ground, Brig. Raja made it a point to visit the Indian rowers camping at the Royal Holloway, about 100 kilometres from the Games Village.
