New Delhi, December 31, 2024.
The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) has given recognition to the Indian Golf Union (IGU) led by Harish Kumar Reddy while declaring the other body, headed by Brijinder Singh, void.
A letter signed by IOA president PT Usha issued on Monday stated that the National Olympic Committee had “reviewed the facts” and “examined the procedural adherence” before recognising the body headed by Reddy.
Two AGMs were held on December 15 to elect the new IGU office-bearers — one at the India Habitat Centre (IHC) where Singh was re-elected president with retired Punjab and Haryana High Court judge, Rameshwar Malik, as the Returning Officer, and the other at the Olympic Bhawan, where Reddy was elected with Justice OP Garg (Retd) as the RO.
