New Delhi, Dec 19 (PTI) The newly-elected office-bearers of the Table Tennis Federation of India (TTFI), led by President Meghna Ahlawat, assumed charge on Monday.

The Delhi High Court had suspended the TTFI in February after observing a "sorry" state of affairs in the national sports federation and appointed a Committee of Administrators (CoA) to look after its day to day functioning.
