"I haven't decided. I don't want to make an emotional decision. I would be leaving for Germany within a couple of days and will discuss the matter with my trusted professionals," Bindra said in a select media interaction at his family's farmhouse at Zirakpur, nearly 25 km from Chandigarh.

Commenting on his grievances against the National Rifles Association of India, he said it was he who is the loser in the end.

"Who is getting affected in the end, it is not the federation or anybody else, but me," said Bindra, India's first and only individual Olympic gold medallist.

About the controversy surrounding the selection trials, Bindra said the turn of events has left him disgusted.

"I am not asking for anything. What am I asking for? I came for the trials in December, but there were no trials held then. This is the way things have carried on in the past, change of schedules in trials is a routine," he said.
