Q1With reference to anti-doping governance, consider the following statements: 1. NADA India implements anti-doping rules, testing, awareness and results management in India. 2. The World Anti-Doping Code harmonises anti-doping policies and rules among sports organisations and public authorities. 3. A Therapeutic Use Exemption may permit a prohibited substance in limited medical circumstances through a proper process. Which of the statements given above are correct? Select the correct answer using the code given below.
All three statements are correct. NADA is India's implementation agency, while the World Anti-Doping Code supplies the harmonised global framework. A properly granted Therapeutic Use Exemption is part of the process, so detection alone does not establish intentional cheating.
Q2Consider the following statements regarding judicial review of sports bodies: 1. In Zee Telefilms Ltd. v. Union of India (2005), the Supreme Court held by majority that BCCI was not 'State' under Article 12. 2. That ruling necessarily prevents a High Court from reviewing BCCI's public functions under Article 226. Which one of the following is correct?
Statement 1 is correct and Statement 2 is incorrect. Zee Telefilms answered the narrower Article 12 status question. Article 226 is broader, and a private body performing public functions may still face writ review in an appropriate case.
Q3With reference to the constitutional position of sports in India, consider the following statements: 1. Sports is expressly placed in Entry 33 of List II of the Seventh Schedule. 2. International sports participation may involve Union concerns relating to foreign affairs and treaty obligations. 3. Article 51A(j) creates an enforceable Fundamental Right to sports excellence. Which of the statements given above are correct? Select the correct answer using the code given below.
Statements 1 and 2 are correct. Ordinary sports administration is primarily a State subject under Entry 33 of List II, while international participation may engage Union fields. Article 51A(j) is a Fundamental Duty to strive towards excellence, not an enforceable Fundamental Right.
