PT Usha Nominated by Ice Hockey Association, Remains in IOA Presidential RacePreviousNext

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 General Body, keeping her hopes alive for re-election despite losing the Sportspersons of Merit (SOM) polls. Her nomination allows her to contest the IOA Executive Council elections scheduled for December 5. The final electoral roll will be published after scrutiny of objections. Usha's return adds uncertainty to the IOA leadership contest ahead of India's 2036 Olympic Games bid.
