I want to look at our talent identification and development programmes," he said as per an official release."We have to see where the talent is coming from, why is it coming only from this region, and then see what can we do to better or change what is already existing. We will also look at our talent development and obviously that would be coach-led with athletes (at the) centre," he added.Pandoo said his focus would be to create a strong coaching structure with the capability to help India produce international champions."We will look at the resources that are available, and the coach education, and see what is lacking," he said, speaking of developing programmes for 100 coaches and 60 referees each year.He has been appointed as India's HPD for Weightlifting until the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, with a specific focus on the development of junior talent and with an eye on the 2028 LA Olympics.
