NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Thursday appointed Justice LN Rao, former SC Judge, as the pointsman to supervise expeditious carrying out of amendments to the constitution of Indian Olympic Association (IOA), prepare electoral rolls and hold elections.
Keeping in view the threat from International Olympic Committee (IOC) to suspend IOA as the national Olympic body, a bench of Justices D Y Chandrachud and Hima Kohli referred to the fresh e-mail on behalf of IOC and repelled arguments from a medley of advocates for changing secretary general Rajeev Mehta.
