Hello
Payyoli is also the hometown of legendary athlete P T Usha, who is now a BJP MP.
Indian Olympic Association president P T Usha announced that Mary Kom had asked to be relieved from her position in a letter addressed to her.
So far, 49 Indian athletes, including 17 shooters and the men's hockey squad, have qualified for the July-August Games.
It is understood that the meeting was to soften the blow after Usha's statement -- that the grapplers lacked discipline as they hit the streets to resume their protest against WFI chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh -- drew widespread condemnation.
P T Usha came down heavily on the wrestlers for hitting the streets to resume their protests instead of approaching IOA athletes' commission.
The IOA also instituted a three-member adhoc panel to run the affairs of the WFI until a new body is elected.
It will be the first honorary doctorate awarded by the Kasaragod-based university since its inception in 2009.
The minister clarified that no action is being taken against the sports school. "The allegations pertain to a local matter and there is no need to go to Delhi to raise it," said Abdurahiman.
Appealing with tears, for help to conduct the smooth functioning of the school, Usha demanded that the Chief Minister should intervene in the issue
MC Mary Kom is part of the 7-member committee set up by the Indian Olympic Association.
