He said, “I was saying so much to my fellow members (in the players’ commission) that if this happens, I can resign. I never said that I am resigning. IOA is my family and if I am angry about something, I have every right to express it. ”
Mary Kom was selected on a panel in 2022 with table tennis player Achanta Sharat Kamal Vice President.

Many players speak on many issues but do not consider them wrong. “He said,” I kept in a bad hotel in the closing ceremony of the National Games while a better hotel was available. If others could be kept in it, then why not me. I asked this question. ”
He said, “Later I came to know that people are saying that I resigned. Where is the resignation. Has anyone seen it. “On asking if he spoke to IOA President PT Usha on this, she said,” I could not do it because my phone is lost. I will talk to them. I have a good dialogue.
