Sports Law in 2012 : The Year in Review
2012 was a thrilling roller coaster ride for the legal eco-system surrounding the sporting world. From the London Olympics 2012 to the Indian Olympic Association’s (“IOA”) disqualification by the International Olympic Council (“IOC”), 2012 has had its fair share of smiles andsighs. The year highlighted some problems which continue to impede the governance of sports, the solutions to which are yet to be seen in the year ahead. With the nexus between sport and the law gaining significant ground in 2012, 2013 could present a kaleidoscope of new possibilities. We reflect on the events, legal hurdles, issues and the solutions 2012 evidenced, as the sporting arena gears up for a promising year ahead.

Save Dissent to Save Democracy   THE rising instances of physical violence and threats against political opponents and the inability to accept dissent must raise huge concerns amongst all of us who see democracy as perhaps the really stellar achievement since Independence. AAP’s attack on BJP headquarters and acts of arson committed under the very noses of their elite leadership; the attacks on Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia in Gujarat in the last two days; the recent manhandling of the caretaker of journalist Siddharth Varadarajan’s house by some garden variety thugs; and the violence and threats meted out regularly to their political opponents by political parties is surely deplorable and condemnable.
