Internal bickering delays India's chef de mission appointment


NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India has yet to name its chef de mission for this year's London Olympics with local media blaming the delay on internal bickering within the Indian Olympic Association (IOA).

Thursday's Indian Express newspaper said that lobbies in the IOA were backing two different candidates for the job, thus leading to a stalemate which an IOA executive committee meeting in October could not resolve.
