Asian Games gold medallist Manjit Singh, who doesn't have a regular job, yesterday requested the sports ministry to include him in the Target Olympic Podium Scheme (TOPS) to prepare for the upcoming 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

Manjit, who won a gold in the men's 800m race in the Asian Games, was left without a job in March 2016 after the ONGC refused to extend his contract as he was not producing results.
