PT Usha Nominated by Ice Hockey Association, Continues IOA Presidential Bid
Indian Olympic Association (IOA) President PT Usha has been nominated by the Ice Hockey Association of India as one of its representatives to the IOA electoral college, keeping her bid for re-election alive despite losing the Sportspersons of Merit (SOM) election. The nomination allows her to contest the IOA Executive Council elections scheduled for December 5. The final electoral list will be published after scrutiny of objections. Usha has also raised concerns about alleged violations during the SOM polls, adding complexity to the upcoming IOA elections.
