PT Usha and sports ministry are at loggerheads over the Indian Golf Union recognition.
ENS @ Chennai

Usha on Tuesday responded to a January 2 letter by the sports ministry and said the letter was written without going through facts of the matter.

Two annual general meetings (AGMs) were held on December 15 to elect the new IGU office-bearers. One was held at the India Habitat Centre (IHC) where Brijinder 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 Shetty was elected with Justice OP Garg (Retd) as the RO. Usha said the IOA gave recognition to the faction led by Shetty after having "reviewed the facts" and "examined the procedural adherence".
