Celebrations post polls
Viren Shah recently won the presidency of the National Sports Club of India (NSCI), in both Mumbai (Worli) and Delhi. Elections to the NSCI were held on March 26, 2023 after four years. There was an election hiatus because of the novel Coronavirus pandemic and the club was facing a legal issue too. Shah was acting president of the club from 2020, because the former president Ravikiran Agarwal was declared insolvent as per a Bombay High Court order passed on May 26, 2020 and subsequently, according to club rules, lost his membership in June 2020.
Shah was then vice-president but took over as acting president post that decision. Shah said the present election which took place on March 26 was, “held after four years. Though the election was held a month ago, the presidency, and other office-bearers as per procedure, are appointed only after the committee meets, at least a fortnight after the election. That was decided on April 22.”
