Don’t send names of women table tennis team for Commonwealth Games now, HC tells TTFI

The High Court of Karnataka on Thursday directed the Table Tennis Federation of India (TTFI) not to send the list of national women table tennis team to represent the country in the Commonwealth Games-2022, to be held at Birmingham in the United Kingdom from July 28 to August 8, till the next date of hearing on a petition filed by a woman TT player.

A Division Bench comprising Justice P.S. Dinesh Kumar and Justice C.M. Poonacha issued the interim directions on a petition filed by 21-year-old tennis player Archana Girish Kamath, who has already represented India in many international tournaments.

Ms. Kamath questioned her exclusion from the list of players selected by the TTFI even though her name was in the list, which was submitted before the Sports Authority of India during May last week after being chosen by the selection committee.
