Delhi High Court Dismisses Writ Petitions of Table Tennis Players Manush Shah and Swastika Ghosh
Indian table tennis players Manush Shah and Swastika Ghosh had approached the Delhi High Court after the CoA, running the TTFI, had excluded them from the final Commonwealth Games squad. Indian table tennis players Manush Shah and Swastika Ghosh’s writ petitions challenging their exclusion from the country’s Commonwealth Games squad were on Monday dismissed by Delhi High Court. Shah and Ghosh had approached the court after the Committee of Administrators (CoA), running the Table Tennis Federation of India (TTFI), had excluded them from the final CWG squad announced earlier this month. “I was told by our lawyer that our case has been dismissed," Manush’s father Utpal told PTI. The selectors did not include Manush in the men’s team although he was in the top-four as per the criteria set by the CoA. The men’s squad included veteran Sharath Kamal, G Sathiyan, Harmeet Desai, Sanil Shetty, with Manush on standby.
