High Court of Punjab and Haryana at Chandigarh (Kuldeep Tiwari, J., oral), decision dated 19.05.2025 — CWP-242-2024 (O&M) & CWP-7119-2024 (O&M) with CM-6409-CWP-2025. Application under Section 151 CPC by Haryana Amateur Wushu Association and Wushu Association of Bhiwani sought directions to respondent no.2 (Wushu Association of India) for final entry of their players in the 25th Sub Junior National Wushu Championship (Tamil Nadu, 26-31.05.2025), 34th Senior National Wushu Championship (Jaipur, 14-19.06.2025) and 24th Junior National Wushu Championship (Hyderabad, 01-06.07.2025).

The writ petitions, which had sought a writ of certiorari against WAI order dated 04.02.2021 (Annexure P-3) constituting a three-member Committee to look after Haryana Wushu affairs, were dismissed as withdrawn with liberty to challenge that order before an appropriate authority/forum; all pending applications stood disposed of accordingly.
