Indian Chef-de-mission

Tokyo Olympics: Six officials from Indian contingent will be allowed to take part in the Olympics opening ceremony, said India's deputy chef-de-mission Prem Kumar Verma.

Union sports minister Vijay Goel today defended the allegations of misbehaviour levelled against his entourage by the Organising Committee stating that nothing of that sort has happened.

AIBA, in a sweeping move, decided to suspend Sarita, her coaches -- Gurbaksh Singh Sandhu, Blas Iglesias Fernandes and Sagar Mal Dhayal -- and the Indian chef-de-mission to the Asian Games Adille Sumariwala.

Former sprinter and Chef-de-Mission Adille Sumariwala, IOA vice-president Tarlochan Singh and more than 50 competititors, including the women's hockey squad, was present when the Indian flag was hoisted along with those of five other countries/region -- Myanmar, Uzbekistan, Tajikstan, Chinese Taipei and Palestine.

Stunned by Vikas Krishan's ouster from the Olympic Games following a reversal of decision by the International Boxing Association, Indian Chef-de-Mission P K Muralidharan Raja on Saturday said the country's contingent will not take AIBA's decision lying down even though it has "limited options" in the matter.

Three-time Olympian and former captain of the Indian hockey team Ajit Pal Singh was on Monday named as India`s Chef-de-Mission for the London Olympic Games, bringing end to the wrangling for the post within the Indian Olympic Association (IOA).

Indian athletes have swept the South Asian Games, fetching medals in almost all the disciplines but there has been no cash incentive or encouragement from the government, lamented chef-de-mission Paresh Nath Mukherjee.
