Outgoing Hockey India CEO Elena Norman on Tuesday said the work environment in HI was “difficult” and she had no choice but to call it quits.
Days before resigning as Hockey India’s (HI) first chief executive officer (CEO), Elena Norman had filed an affidavit before the Delhi high court refuting allegations of inaction and impropriety leveled against her in the “Inquiry Report on Alleged Irregularities or Misconduct in Hockey India” (HI).Furthermore, in the report that was turned in to the high court in November of last year, Srinivas suggested that HI reconsider her contract and change it to a standard limited-term agreement rather than keeping her on as a consultant in order to improve her responsibility. The inquiry officer further suggested that HI “suitably” modify the CEO’s salary and terminate the practice of having the same individual serve as both the CEO of HI and the Hockey India League.
