Deepika Kumari, Jayanta Talukdar join OGQ

Olympic Gold Quest (OGQ) has roped in top archers Jayanta Talukdar and world No. 3 Deepika Kumari on Friday and will support the duo till 2016 Rio Olympics.

“We were demoralised after the sports ministry refused to recognise the Archery Association of India (AAI). The junior archers were not getting jobs. I thank OGQ for this initiative,” said Talukdar. Deepika, who recently returned from the Archery World Cup Stage 1 in Shanghai with two silver medals including one with Jayanta, spoke about not repeating mistakes while preparing for Rio.
