The All India Chess Federation on Wednesday decided to approach the union sports ministry seeking its intervention in conducting the election of the body already marred by factional fights.
Among the other notable decision taken at the Special General Body Meeting, a five-member panel was formed to look into the day to day affairs of the federation.
The five-member committee comprising Vipnesh Bharadwaj, Naresh Sharma, Bhavesh Patel, Neeraj Kumar Mishra and Bhagyashree Thipsay.
Bharadwaj, one of the committee members told PTI, "Yes..it will be a steady process, but we will end the turmoil. Chess players will gain. Chess and AICF will shine again!!"
The members felt the matter should be enquired as to how on March 31 within one day after illegal appointment of Deshpande, DV Sundar visited the bank with signature of Deshpande when country was under lockdown?
