The house unanimously endorsed the continuation of Malhotra as its acting president, with full powers and authority,\u201d adds <strong>Hindustan Times. <\/p>\n<p><\/strong>The development was a clear signal that the door is not shut on Kalmadi and the beleaguered politician can still make a comeback. There is talk in the IOA circles that Malhotra would continue as acting president till the next IOA elections, which are due later this year, before Kalmadi returns to claim his seat. <\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile at forty, Jeev Milkha Singh feels he still has it in him to win more tournaments on the international circuit and move closer to the top. &#8220;I tell myself if Vijay Singh (Fiji Islands) could become the number one player in the world at 40 (Vijay did that in the nineties), even I can do it. I\u2019m absolutely fit now. The shoulder injury has healed completely, my back\u2019s good and I see good days ahead,\u201d said Jeev, according to\u00a0 report in <strong>The Tribune. <br \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The ace player was speaking at a function at the launch of a charity golf tournament here on Friday. \u201cI\u2019m hitting close to 300 balls every day and I plan to build on that and also I\u2019m concentrating a lot on my short game and ultimately it\u2019s all about the confidence and the mental aspect of the game. And I feel I\u2019m getting there slowly,\u201d said Jeev.<\/p>\n<p>With a couple of months left for the London Olympics, NIS, Patiala, is abuzz with activity as many star sportspersons of the country are sweating it out to make it to mega sports bonanza, says a report in <strong>The Tribune. <\/strong>Right from pugilists to female wrestlers, table tennis players, weightlifters and athletes, top probable for London Olympics of various games are currently training at NIS.<\/p>\n<p>All female pugilists, except Mary Kom, are training here and there coach Chandra Lal feel that it was the best sports centre in the country for boxers. \u201cIt has the best sports environment and the weather and food here are perfect. As far as infrastructure is concerned, NIS, Patiala, is no match and therefore, girls are very comfortable training here. Moreover, with the fully equipped boxing hall, they can even train during night hours, which is an added advantage,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an emergency meeting convened by Indian Olympic Association on Friday to discuss the letters received from the International Olympic Committee (IOC) \u2013 the world body wants to know what action IOA is taking on Kalmadi following the court case against him, IOA decided that there will no change in the status quo, which means [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[449,1041,450,147,337,1457],"class_list":["post-2905","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-from-the-newspapers","tag-indian-olympic-association","tag-international-olympic-committee","tag-ioa","tag-jeev-milkha-singh","tag-suresh-kalmadi","tag-vijay-singh"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>IOA decides not to take any action against Suresh Kalmadi - IndianSportsNews.com - Latest Updated Sports News &amp;
