New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Friday set aside an order issued by the President of the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) to form a five-member Ad Hoc committee to manage the affairs of the Bihar Olympic Association (BOA). The court observed that the order did not meet the legal requirements and thus deserved to be annulled.
The bench of Justice Sachin Datta in an order passed on Monday said, "I find that the impugned action on the part of the President, IOA in constituting an Ad-hoc Committee "to look after the affairs" of the Bihar Olympic Association does not satisfy the requirements of law. The impugned order dated 01.01.2025 is consequently set aside."
