The Indian hockey groups’ experiment with a change in jersey color has been partially rolled again and the gamers will now don the normal blue on the upcoming Asian Video games.
The saffron package, which led to allegations of politicisation and inside tussle inside Hockey India, would be the second choice.
“The Indian Olympic Affiliation (IOA) had requested us our most popular alternative and HI has given blue as the primary alternative. Saffron would be the second color,” HI president Dilip Tirkey stated.
In the meantime, virtually two months after the sports activities ministry requested the Indian Olympic Affiliation to conduct an unbiased inquiry into former captain Asunta Lakra’s allegations of harassment and intimidation towards Hockey India secretary Bholanath Singh, a four-member committee has been constituted for a similar.
The committee
The committee, headed by Justice (retd.) Deepa Sharma, additionally contains former India striker and 2002 Commonwealth Video games gold medallist Mamta Kharab and former sprinter Vandana Rao.
Supreme Courtroom advocate Sitwat Nabi is the fourth member of the committee which is anticipated to start work later this week.
