BFI Rejects Anurag Thakur’s Nomination For Electoral College
HPBA Vice President Rajesh Bhandari: The Boxing Federation of India (BFI) on Wednesday rejected former Sports Minister Anurag Thakur’s nomination for inclusion in the electoral college for the upcoming March 28 elections. The rejection was based on his ineligibility to represent the Himachal Pradesh Boxing Association (HPBA), as per BFI regulations.
Thakur’s name, along with that of HPBA Vice President Rajesh Bhandari, had been submitted by the state body for inclusion. However, after a thorough scrutiny process, the BFI issued a finalised 60-member electoral college, omitting Thakur’s name for not meeting the eligibility criteria.
“Mr. Anurag Singh Thakur (Himachal Pradesh Boxing Association) – The State Unit had sent the name, however, he is found ineligible for violation of Boxing Federation of India notice dated 07.03.2025 and National Sports Development Code of India, 2011,” the BFI clarified in its statement.
