V Srinivasan, the husband of Indian Olympic Association president and Rajya Sabha MP PT Usha, passed away at the age of 64 in Thikkodi Perumalpuram, Kerala. Srinivasan, a former CISF inspector, married PT Usha in 1991, and they have a son named Ujjwal Vignesh.
Srinivasan collapsed at his residence and was immediately taken to a nearby private hospital, where he could not be saved. PT Usha was away attending a parliamentary session when the incident occurred and is now on her way back home.
Srinivasan, who was a kabaddi player in his youth, played a significant role in establishing and managing the Usha School of Athletics in Koyilandy. He served as the treasurer of the school and was instrumental in supporting and encouraging PT Usha in realizing her dreams.
Union Minister Kiren Rijiju also expressed his condolences to PT Usha and her family through a social media post, acknowledging Srinivasan’s contributions and expressing sympathy for their loss.
