HC issues notice to judo federation

NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court has issued notices to the Union Government, the Judo Federation of India, the Sports Authority of India and the Indian Olympic Association on a petition by a woman judoka challenging her exclusion in the 78k category from the team for the upcoming Beijing Olympics.

Issuing the notices, Vacation Judge S.L. Bhayana directed the respondents to file their replies to the petition by Oct. 16.

The petitioner, Bittu Sharma, submitted that another judoka, Divya, had been selected to represent the country in the 78k class without conducting a trial for selection.

She alleged that Divya had nothing to her credit except a medal at a Commonwealth Games. — Staff Reporter
