All eyes were on Silchar DSA’s Governing Body meeting called yesterday. After Silchar DSA’s membership was cancelled by Assam Olympic Association, it was the first time the members of the governing body had met to discuss the road ahead.
However, at the very beginning of the meeting, the members got shocked. Secretary of Silchar DSA, Bijendra Prasad Singh informed that the authority has got a legal notice from the District Court which mentions that Silchar DSA has been kept party to a case lodged against Assam Olympic Association. An individual lodged the case, however, there is speculation around the name of the individual.
Barak Bulletin got access to the document and is aware about the petitioner. However, the name is not disclosed in order to respect the petitioner’s condition to anonymity. The petition mentions that Assam Olympic Association went beyond its constitutional rights to cancel the membership of Silchar DSA. There are only two circumstances under which the AOA can cancel the membership, one if Silchar DSA is not participating in events and two, if Silchar DSA is not paying the fees. While Silchar DSA was in compliance with both, the AOA going beyond its jurisdiction took an action that warrants legal intervention is what the petitioner mentioned.
Silchar DSA will get the certified copy of the petition tomorrow and after that, the details of the petitioner will come forward. What happens next in this faceoff between Silchar DSA and Assam Olympic Association is something that will be decided by the court…
