Here is a sad news for you friends... The International Olympic Committee (IOC) banned the Indian Olympic Association today (4th December 2012) because of government interference in its election process, two officials with knowledge of the decision told The Associated Press. After months of warnings, the IOC executive board imposed the sanction when the Indian Olympic Association failed to comply with the world body's demands for holding independent elections, the officials said. According to the sources, Kuwait, also under investigation over a sports law, had escaped a ban. The Committee's Executive Board, which is meeting in Lausanne, is expected to announce its decisions later on Tuesday.
