Indian Olympic Association (IOA) will hold a crucial meeting on December 30 at New Delhi to decide the fate of Chhattisgarh Olympic Association (COA) and finalise the date for holding the election after Registrar, Firms and Society had dissolved the COA led by former chief minister Raman Singh.
Addressing the media persons on Sunday, COA founder member and vice president Bashir Ahmed Khan said till a new working committee is elected, an adhoc committee will oversee the functioning.
He said that he had lodged a complaint with Registrar, Firms and Societies, Chhattisgarh on the amendments made through a meeting held on November 22, 2013 and later inclusion of 49 members as life-time members and given them voting rights which are against the norms of IOA.
The complaint was both accepted and verified by the IOA and Registrar, Firms and Societies. Additional to it the tenure of COA had ended on October 25, 2019 but no election was held for formation of the new body.
Meanwhile, the society through its order has asked the COA to hold a meeting to elect the new body within 45 days.
