ଟେବୁଲ୍‌ ଟେନିସ୍‌ ଫେଡେରେଶନ ସ୍ବୀକୃତି ରଦ୍ଦ, କ୍ରୀଡ଼ା ମନ୍ତ୍ରଣାଳୟର ବଡ଼ ନିଷ୍ପତ୍ତି

According to a report by Dharitri, the Indian Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports has officially revoked the recognition of the Table Tennis Federation of India (TTFI). This significant administrative decision follows concerns regarding internal governance, procedural lapses, and the federation's failure to conduct timely elections as required by national sports regulations.

In response to the revocation, the Ministry has directed the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) to establish an ad-hoc committee. This committee will be tasked with overseeing the day-to-day administration of the sport and conducting a thorough investigation into the administrative irregularities that prompted the government's intervention. The move is intended to ensure transparency and accountability within the federation's operations.

The suspension of recognition effectively halts the federation's ability to receive government funding and official support until the specified governance standards are met. This action reflects a broader trend of the Indian government exercising stricter oversight over national sports bodies to ensure compliance with the National Sports Development Code. Further updates are expected as the ad-hoc committee begins its review process.
