Eight state tennis associations, affiliated with AITA, had proposed to move a no- confidence motion against Jain and an Extra Ordina꧟ry General Meeting (EGM) was called on Saturday ahead of the Annual General Meeting (AGM).
Jain had moved the court seeking a stay on the EGM but the plea was not entertaine🐻d. He had also alleged that certain candidates,♔ who filed nominations for posts, were in violation of the Sports Code.
"The no-confidence motion has been withdrawn, so EGM was not required," a source told PTI without sharin𒆙g the details.
Jain, who is a BJP Rajya Sabha MP, faced charges of "loading the association with his pe🗹rsonal 'entitled' expenses by travelling with his family abroad several times."
The state units that proposed the no-confidenceꦑ motion were: Assam, Gujarat, Jammu and Kashmir, Haryana Maharashtra, Punjab, Tamil Nadu and Tripura.
One of the state ass꧙ociations had accused Jain of using his position in AITA for personal gains.
