NEW DELHI, May 25 (PTI): With time running out and the threat of India�s ouster from the Olympic family looming large, the Sports Ministry today sought an early meeting with IOC president Jacques Rogge to solve what it described as a �false situation of crisis� created by the IOA officials.
In his letter to Rogge, joint secretary Injeti Srinivas sought an immediate meeting to clear the air, adding that the Sports Ministry has not received copy of the International Olympic Committee letter in which IOC threatened to take up the issue in its executive board meeting next nonth, which may lead to India�s ouster from Olympic family.
�We are confident that IOC will acquaint itself with the full facts before forming any view in the present case. We expect that our meeting with you can be scheduled early to enable a comprehensive appreciation of the entire matter,� Srinivas said.
