NSC had dissolved NSA on Sunday and formed a new ad hoc committee under the chair of NSC member Samim Miya Ansari. However, NOC has refused to give affiliation to the newly formed swimming body citing it as ´undemocratic.´ [break]
NOC President Dhruba Bahadur Pradhan said that NOC would not give authorization to any sports body formed in an undemocratic way. “We don´t know any NSA under the leadership of Samim Miya Ansari, and the dissolution of NSA is against the international practice and Olympic charter,” Pradhan said.
Meanwhile, the meeting of the newly formed NSA has formed a committee under the coordination of general secretary Jagatman Shrestha for development and promotion of swimming, states a press statement issued by NSC.
The meeting held under the chair of president Ansari also discussed plans and polices of the association.
