on 19 januaury 2018, ceo of cgf david grevemberg confirmed that shooting, which is an optional sport according to the cgf charter, would not feature at the 2022 commonwealth games as the organising committee of the games decided to exclude the sport. this sparked an anger among the athletes from india and the indian olympic association (ioa) as india performed well in shooting during the previous edition of the games at gold coast in 2018 by winning 16 medals, including 7 golds. the national rifle association of india (nrai) president raninder singh wanted the indian government to boycott the 2022 commonwealth games if shooting was excluded from the programme. meanwhile, the ioa requested the cgf and the organising committee of the 2022 commonwealth games to include shooting in the event. on 20 june 2019, during the cgf board meeting in birmingham, the cgf confirmed that the shooting sport has been excluded from the 2022 commonwealth games as no suitable venue has been found in the host city birmingham and in the west midlands region. on 27 july 2019, ioa president narinder batra wrote a letter to the indian sports minister kiren rijiju to discuss about the boycott of the 2022 games as the cgf did not add shooting in the games. in regarding to protest, batra said that the ioa has pulled out the upcoming cgf general assembly to be held in kigali, rwanda in september 2020 and also the ioa had withdrawn the nomination of its secretary general rajeev mehta for the election of a regional vice-president as well as that of namdev shiragaonkar for sports committee member in cgf. batra also commented that the cgf has an "india bashing mindset" and "try to change rules" whenever the country (india) does well in the commonwealth games.
