According to point number 26 of the meeting’s agenda issues by the Executive Council, the IOA will ‘discuss and consider a motion of No Confidence against the President in light of alleged constitutional violations and actions potentially detrimental to Indian sports.’
Usha has been involved in a prolonged tussle with the IOA’s Executive Council members, with allegations flying from both sides. The legendary athlete, the first woman to head the IOA, has issued show cause notice to multiple Executive Council members for allegedly violating eligibility norms.
