World Boxing panel says BFI chief Ajay Singh not eligible to contest its polls

World Boxing panel says BFI chief Ajay Singh not eligible to contest its polls

What's behind this

BFI president Ajay Singh will attend the World Boxing Congress as a voter after his bid for a seat on the organization’s Executive Board was ruled ineligible by a vetting panel in September, preventing him from contesting the November 20 elections. The decision comes amid internal infighting, with a faction opposed to Singh claiming that the dispute undermines the BFI at the international forum. Singh has previously said the federation will focus on Olympic preparations despite a dispute with a suspended secretary general.
