WFI Constitution | General Council Retains Disaffiliation Power Despite Executive Committee Suspension: Bombay HC

This affirms that structural governance bodies are not automatically paralyzed by administrative intervention, protecting the autonomy of internal federation processes under natural justice and constitutional principles.
