Punjab and Haryana High Court Stays No-Confidence Motion Against BFI President

The Punjab and Haryana High Court has intervened in the ongoing leadership dispute within the Boxing Federation of India (BFI). On Tuesday, the court directed the federation's secretary-general, Pramod Kumar, to keep the upcoming General Body meeting in abeyance until the next scheduled hearing on November 13.

The meeting, which had been set for October 28, was intended to facilitate a no-confidence motion against the current BFI president, Ajay Singh. The judicial directive follows a formal petition submitted by Singh, which prompted Justice Tribhuvan Dahiya to issue the stay order, effectively halting the proceedings for the time being.

With the court order now in place, the planned vote of no confidence is suspended. The matter is expected to be revisited when the court reconvenes on November 13, at which point further directions regarding the governance of the federation may be provided. Until that time, the status quo remains, and the federation is legally bound to refrain from proceeding with the meeting as originally scheduled.
