New Delhi: Legendary sprinter P T Usha is set to become the first woman president of the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) in the body’s 95-year-long history. Usha will also be the first Olympian and international medallist to head the IOA, which goes to polls on December 10.
The 58-year-old multiple Asian Games gold medallist emerged as the lone candidate to file the nomination for IOA president’s post. Returning officer Umesh Sinha didn’t receive any nominations on the first two days of filing the papers on Friday and Saturday, but 24 candidates applied for various office-bearers’ posts on Sunday. TOI had reported on Sunday that Usha will be filing her nomination for the IOA’s top post and could well be the lone candidate in the fray.
