The All India Chess Federation (AICF) staff are yet to receive their February salaries due to various issues including the internal squabble between the factions led by president P R Venketrama Raja and secretary Bharat Singh Chauhan.
While Chauhan said clearance of cheques to pay staff salaries and for other payments depended on its banker (Indian Bank), AICF Treasurer Kishor M Bandekar claimed the secretary's signature was mandatory and he was not signing citing "lack of authority."
"Salaries of the staff for February are due. Also, March salaries will be due soon. There are other dues and the issue will be taken up with the bank."
