NEW DELHI: The International Olympic Committee (IOC), during its executive board meeting on Wednesday, raised concerns over the Indian Olympic Association's (IOA) delay in appointing a CEO/secretary-general. The IOC issued a strong statement urging the IOA to expedite the appointment process and address issues affecting the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) by working closely with the sport's world body.
"NOC of India has been directed on many occasions to finalise the appointment process of the new CEO/Secretary General without any further delay, in accordance with the NOC Constitution, so as to normalise the situation within the NOC. Unfortunately, the NOC has yet to complete this process. The IOC continues to monitor this issue," an IOC statement read.
