Autonomy of Independent Sports Bodies | IOA Lacks Jurisdiction Over Karnataka-Registered Society : Delhi HC
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.
