Among Indians, Nita Ambani is the first woman and the third individual to become a member of the International Olympic Committee after the late Sir Dorabji Tata and Raja Randhir Singh , who is currently an honorary member of the International Olympic Committee.
Nita Ambani, who is the owner of IPL team Mumbai Indians, was nominated in June 2016 by the IOC Executive Board.
Good to see a woman represent Indian sports at national level.
