Supreme Court Defers Hearing on Equestrian Team Selection Dispute Ahead of Asian Games
The Supreme Court has deferred the hearing on petitions by Asian Games 2022 gold medalists Anush Agarwalla and Sudipti Hajela challenging their non-selection in India's dressage team for the 2026 Asian Games. The Delhi High Court upheld the selection process despite noting some procedural lapses by the Equestrian Federation of India but declined to order a fresh trial due to logistical constraints. A Supreme Court judge recused from the case, and the matter is now scheduled for hearing next week.
