CPI-M leader T O Dasan and former athlete Mercy Kuttan today assumed charge as President and Vice President of the Kerala State Sports Council here.
The new governing body was elected by the LDF government after the Council headed by ace athlete Anju Bobby George, appointed by previous UDF government, resigned following differences with the new government.
Dasan was the KSSC president during the previous LDF rule.
Anju, while announcing her resignation last month, had wanted a detailed probe into the affairs of the Sports Council in the last 10 years.
Anju had also alleged that the Sports Minister had 'insulted' her and accused her of 'corruption' when she came to meet him for the first time, after the CPI(M)-led LDF government came into power.
