Delhi High Court to hear Indian Polo Association's plea over eviction from Jaipur Polo Ground on August 12
The Delhi High Court has scheduled a hearing for August 12 regarding the Indian Polo Association's challenge against an eviction notice from the Jaipur Polo Ground. Justice C. Hari Shankar postponed the matter from an earlier proposed date following a specific request from legal counsel.
The Delhi High Court is set to deliberate on a petition filed by the Indian Polo Association (IPA) concerning its occupancy of the Jaipur Polo Ground in the national capital. The legal challenge seeks to contest an eviction notice issued by government authorities regarding the historic sporting venue.
During the preliminary proceedings, Justice C. Hari Shankar expressed readiness to hear the arguments as early as Tuesday. However, the bench ultimately decided to defer the matter to August 12 after lawyers representing the involved parties requested additional time to prepare their submissions.
The Jaipur Polo Ground serves as a central hub for polo activities in India, and the IPA's plea aims to secure its continued operations at the site. The court's decision in August is expected to provide more clarity on the legal status of the association's tenancy.
