A court in Jammu has stayed the operation of a notice issued by former Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA) president Javed Ahmad Kitab calling for a Special General Meeting (SGM). The court also restrained Kitab from exercising or claiming the powers of the office of the president.
According to an official JKCA communiqué, the Court of the Sub Judge and Special Mobile Magistrate, Jammu, on July 2 put on hold the operation of the impugned notice on June 25 this year, through which Kitab had convened the SGM.
The court also stayed the operation of a press statement issued by Kitab on June 27, 2026, along with all consequential actions arising from it.
The court passed the order after hearing Rahul Pant, Senior Advocate, assisted by Rajat Gupta, Advocate, in response to a suit filed against the former president.
The court further restrained Kitab from representing himself as exercising the powers of the office of the President of JKCA before members, affiliated units, public authorities, financial institutions and other stakeholders.
He has also been barred from issuing any communication or taking administrative decisions in the name of JKCA until the next date of hearing.
