KEY POINTS

·        The autonomy of international and national sports federations is a vital pillar of the sports movement.

·        This status enables sports bodies to act independently through their own democratic structures, free from governmental and external influence.

·        The Indian version is the National Sports Development Code, 2011, fondly known as the Sports Code.

·        The Sports Code assembles dozens of government notifications issued over a few decades, and interpreting its provisions is not a task for the fainthearted.

·        With elections to be held, the underlying premise was that athletes were not adequately represented in the electoral colleges and that only such a radical reform would ensure representation of their voice.

·        The Olympic Charter has a provision for the election of athlete representatives as members of the National Olympic Committee and their boards.

·        It sets a minimum of two athletes as members and one as an executive committee member of the National Olympic Committee (that is, the IOA) but has no upper limit for either.

·        Every district, state and national sports body must have athlete commissions and athlete representation of such bodies embedded in decision-making in reasonable numbers.

·        When the institutional checks and balances of sports governance are not working, not even the most brilliant eminent-athlete-administrator can be expected to turn the tide.
