This is indeed strange. Has he given any reason for such a decision? Is he making way for a successor?

A person who has done tremendous work to strengthen this almost neglected area in India does deserve a salute and I am sure his successor will have to work all the more to bring new innovations in the Motor sports Club.

From what I hear Meco Motorsports chief Akbar Ebrahim will be taking over!
