#Autonomy of Associations

Delhi High Court reaffirms that the Indian Olympic Association cannot impose ad hoc committees on independent sports bodies registered under state-specific Societies Registration Acts. The ruling protects the autonomy of Ski and Snowboard India, a Karnataka-registered society, from IOA's governance disputes, setting a precedent for jurisdictional limits of national sports federations.

Supreme Court holds that district cricket associations are not legally bound to mirror BCCI's constitution, clarifying limits of judicial intervention in sports governance.
