International Olympic Committee suspends India

[Karthik]

The IOC suspended India's national Olympic committee on Tuesday because of government interference in its election process, two officials with knowledge of the decision said.

After months of warnings, the IOC executive board imposed the sanction when the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) failed to comply with the world body's demands for holding independent elections, the officials said.

A very embarrassing moment for Indian Sports. Atleast now let the sports ministry wake up and make necessary changes. Why do politicians head sports bodies :wall why dont we leave it to professionals :angry
