Embattled IOA Chief PT Usha Opens Up New Front; Calls Special General Meeting On Oct 25
IOA Chief Executive Officer: A week after the Executive Committee thwarted her attempts to get the appointment of CEO Raghuram Iyer ratified, the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) president PT Usha has convened a Special General Meeting (SGM) of the body on October 25 to address the various contentious issues that have stalled the working of the organisation.
The IOA chief has embroiled in a controversy recently when 12 EC members, which include Olympic medallists like Gagan Narang and Yogeshwar Dutt, Sehdev Yadav, etc., wrote a letter to senior IOC official Jerome Poivey accusing the legendary athlete of running the organisation in an "autocratic" manner.
Most of the EC members have questioned the appointment of Iyer as IOA Chief Executive Officer in January 2024, calling it a unilateral decision by the President and have refused to ratify it.
