As promised after their shocking revolt, 22 Indian hockey players and support staff, including coaches, were today handed their payments adding up to Rs one crore by IOA President Suresh Kalmadi at the World Cup preparatory camp here.
The cheques with varying individual payments were distributed by the Indian Olympic Association chief, who was accompanied by Hockey India adviser Anupam Gulati.
A crisis situation had developed on January 8 when the players refused to train at the camp insisting on advance payment of their dues from HI.
After failure of their talks with HI authorities, Kalmadi had successfully mediated to bring the players back on the field even as team sponsors Sahara India announced a release of Rs one crore for the striking campers.
