Batra denies flouting rules for IOA presidentship

Indian Olympic Association (IOA) chief, Narinder Batra, on Tuesday refuted allegations of wrongdoings during his election to the top post of the IOA in his brief reply to International Olympic Committee’s (IOC) president, Thomas Bach, arguing that IOA’s vice president, Sudhanshu Mittal, has been trying to “damage my image and reputation as a means to project himself as a candidate for the post of president in the 2021 Indian Olympic Association’s elections”.
