FINALLY, the Mission Olympic Cell (MOC) had a more intense meeting on Tuesday. The newly-constituted MOC had its first meeting that was seen more as an orientation in early January but on Tuesday seemed to be intense where important decisions had been taken.

The focus was LA 2028 and as pointed out by this newspaper, they are already six months late. The Paris Olympics got over in August.

Some of the agendas of the MOC meeting were to "finalise TOPS Core and Development groups; performance review timeline; processes of hiring coaches and support staff and emphasis on hiring of Olympic world level athletes as coaches; payment of OPA to TOPS athletes, etc".
