151. P.P.Doctorjee was a good rifle shooter:


For a while, P.P.Doctorjee accompanied his friends Dr. Moonje and Dr. Cholkar in the rifle club. In a hunting trip, they decided to hold sharp shooting contest. An eggplant (brinjal) was placed on a tall tree in the middle of a clearing in the forest, and each contestant attempted to shoot at it. All shooters failed to touch it, in spite of repeated shots. P.P.Doctorjee shot it down with a single, accurate shot.

In the early days, Swayamsevaks were taught rifle shooting. Senior Sangha Adhikaries and younger Swayamsevaks used to have friendly competitions in shooting. P.P.Doctorjee naturally participated in the competition in the senior citizen’s group. Year after year, he never failed to hit the “Bull’s eye” on all four targets provided, in single shots.

This even is a testament to P.P.Doctorjee’s tremendous abilities in concentrating on his goal.
