The International Hockey Federation (FIH) on Tuesday said it continues to have "full trust" in Hockey India (HI) but expects its member associations to abide by the sports code of their respective countries.
The Delhi High Court last month placed HI under a three-member Committee of Administrators (CoA) following its observation that the federation has violated the National Sports Code.
The court ruling came on a petition filed by former India player Aslam Sher Khan, who had challenged Indian Olympic Association (IOA) President Narinder Batra's appointment as life member of HI.
