[1]Claiming that IOA chief Abhey Singh Chautala was not eligible to attend the August 25 Special General Body Meeting here, Clean Sports India president Ashwini Nachappa has asked the IOC not to heed to the decision taken by “few corrupt officials and politicians” in the meet.
Nachappa, an Olympic sprinter, has shot off a letter to the IOC pointing out that Chautala attended the IOA Special GBM as a representative of the Athletics Federation of India, which he has no connection at all.
“I want to point out the most glaring irregularity of this 25th August General Meeting of IOA. Mr Abhey Singh Chautala proclaiming to be president of IOA has attended the meeting signing as the representative of Athletic Federations of India,” Nachappa said in the letter.
“I have been an athlete since the age of eight, represented my country at Asian Games, World Championships and the Olympic Games, but I have never seen or heard of Mr Chautala being a representative of AFI. As we all know he cannot be member of IOA from the suspended Boxing Federation of India, he simply chose to become an official of AFI. How convenient is that?” she asked.
“The most important leader of IOA’s in its meeting is an intruder and not a member of the General Body. One can well imagine how many ineligible people might have sat in the meeting to decide on the future of Indian sports,” she added.
