The International Golf Federation (IGF) has strongly objected to Indian Olympic Association's interference in the Indian Golf Union elections, and recognising the rival faction led by Harish Kumar Shetty, saying the IOA has "no jurisdiction" over the federation's poll process.
NEW DELHI:
The IOA had given recognition to the IGU led by Shetty while declaring the other body, headed by Brijinder Singh, void in a letter issued on December 30. In a strongly-worded letter to IOA president PT Usha, IGF executive director Antony Scanlon, said the world body fully supports the election won by the Singh faction held on December 15. Shetty and Singh held separate elections and AGMs under different Returning Officers (ROs).

Impetus for science amidst a global churn
The relentless rise of technologies pervades every aspect of human life today, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) is its enforcer.
