Indian Olympic Association President Narinder Batra has filed a complaint to the police stating that somebody is “impersonating” him and “sending emails”.

“…a person is impersonating me as president, Indian Olympic Association and sending emails. Accordingly, your attention is drawn to the attached emails which has been sent by the offender, impersonating the undersigned,” Batra wrote in the complaint.

“Would be grateful if this issue be investigated and be taken to a logical conclusion,” he said in the complaint addressed to Delhi Commissioner of Police for Cyber Cell at Dwarka.

He, however, did not specify the emails that were sent in his name.

Batra is also president of International Hockey Federation and member of International Olympic Committee.

He was elected as IOA chief in 2017.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
