Ajay Nayak, the former electoral officer in the Bihar government has been appointed as the returning officer for the Hockey India elections.
The decision to appoint Nayak was taken during a meeting held between the International Hockey Federation (FIH) and the Committee of Administrators (CoA). Furthermore, the national federation issued a statement, “They will be assuming their positions with immediate effect.”
Notably, the FIH categorically stated that it “does not consider the court as third party”, ruling out the possibility of a ban with only months left for the men’s World Cup, to be held in Bhubaneswar and Rourkela from January 13 to 29.
Moreover, the Hockey India elections are on October 9.
