Statutory Arbitration Under Rajasthan Sports Act, 2005 Bars Writ Jurisdiction Under Article 226 for Internal Elections : Rajasthan HC
The Rajasthan High Court has ruled that internal electoral disputes in sports associations registered under the Rajasthan Sports Act, 2005 must be resolved through statutory arbitration, not writ petitions. This clarifies that Article 226 cannot be invoked to interfere in constitutionally recognized self-governance mechanisms of recognized sports bodies, reinforcing the primacy of statutory remedies in specialized regulatory frameworks.
