He affirmed, “It is a matter of immense pride that the entire election process proceeded smoothly. I will ensure that the discipline of taekwondo will gain immense popularity and will reach the masses in our great country. Presently not many may know of taekwondo, but this will not be the case in the future.”

I believe Taekwondo is a way of life and should be extended to schools and colleges across India. Under Namdev Shirgaonkar’s leadership, we expect to see the rise of this sport and expect India to be a powerhouse over the next few years.”
