NSC chief promises to cleanse sports associations

 National Sports Council (NSC) Member-secretary Yuvaraj Lama said that all the national sports associations would be checked whether they are complying with legal provisions or not within two months. There would be stringent monitoring of these bodies, he said.

"Sports Act directs that every association should have its bodies and activities at least in 16 districts but some of our associations are not in existence even in a room," said Lama during an interaction program organized by Nepal Sports Journalists Forum on Tuesday. "If we follow the law, half of the sports associations will be automatically dissolved," he added. 


Reform in associations

Member-secretary Lama said that NSC would soon issue a notice to all the associations, who have not conducted regular general assembly, to conduct it within two months. "If some associations have conducted it regularly, we´ll ask them to submit the reports. Through this, we´ll look into their financial transparency also," said Lama.

Olympics dispute 

Lama also promised to resolve disputes about Nepal Olympic Committee (NOC) as soon as possible. "One NOC body led by Dhruba Bahadur Pradhan has international recognition and the Supreme Court´s decision has made NOC body led by Rukma Samsher Rana alive within the country. Now, both bodies lack options other than searching a common ground," said Lama.
