The award was presented to him by the OCA President, His Excellency Sheikh Ahmed AlFahad Al-Ahmed Al-Sabah on Sunday at the OCA General Assembly here.
Incidentally it was only a month ago that Mr Ramachandran had received the IOC’s Olympic Order for his contribution to the Olympic movement. The latest recognition makes Ramachandran the only IOA President to have received the two awards.
A delighted Ramachandran said: “This is another glorious moment in my life. I accept the award in all humility and I take pride in dedicating this honour to all the athletes in India.”
