New Delhi, Feb. 26 -- The IOA ad hoc panel for boxing took charge on Tuesday and put in place measures to send India teams for competitions besides setting a two-month deadline to hold the Boxing Federation of India (BFI) elections.
IOA president PT Usha on Monday named a five-member panel headed by Madhu Kant Pathak to run the affairs of boxing and conduct elections citing "administrative instability" after elections were not called with the tenure of the BFI body having ended on February 2. The BFI president Ajay Singh has refuted IOA's criticism with the boxing body preparing to challenge the decision in court. "We are moving court. Putting an ad hoc body is a clear violation of the IOA constitution," a BFI office-bearer said.
