Another NSF demands GBM to oust IOA chief

Bowling Federation of India (BFI) today joined Hockey India in demanding a Special General Body Meeting of the Indian Olympic Association to take up a No Confidence Motion against incumbent president N Ramachandran.
BFI president Sunaina Kumari and Secretary General D R Saini sent a letter to the IOA stating that it has no confidence on Ramachandran and a Special GBM should be called at the earliest to vote on the issue.
"As per Rule VIII (i) and (ii) of IOA Constitution, we Bowling Federation of India are moving a no confidence motion against Mr N Ramachandran President IOA as we are totally in disagreement with his working and along with it we also feel he is working towards weakening and finishing of the IOA," BFI said in the letter.

"We request you to convene a Special General Meeting (SGM) of the IOA at the earliest to discus on the vote of no confidence against Mr N Ramachandran President," Sunaina and Saini wrote in the letter addressed to IOA president, secretary general and treasurer.
The BFI's letter came just two days after Hockey India President Narinder Batra shot off a similar note to the IOA to move the No Confidence Motion against Ramachandran and to call a Special GBM to vote on the issue.
According to the IOA constitution, a No Confidence Motion against the president, secretary general, treasurer and other executive council members can be passed if two-third majority of the members are present and voting.

The quorum for such a meeting will have to be three-fourths of the total strength of the IOA General Body entitled to vote.
