Shrikant Barve who has represented Goa at National
'B' Annual Chess Tounament held at Dindigul, Tamil Nadu in
2007 has raised his objection for holding National B in Goa
by Goa State Chess Association. He has submitted his
objection to Sports Authority of Goa which controls sports
activity in Goa and finances Goa State Chess Association.
Reason for objection :Goa State Chess Association (GSCA) is a
defuct body.
Shrikant Barve came to know status of GSCA as he applied for
certified copy of registration of GSCA. In reply registrar
has stated that Regd No 39 of 78 in the name of All Goa Daman
Diu State Chess Association alis Goa State Chess Association
has not renewed its Registration Certificate till today.
Therefore, it becomes an unregistered society under section
3(B)(5) of the societies Registration (Goa Second Amendment )
Act, 1998.
GSCA had a opportunity on April 27 2008 to renew its
registration under Registrar of societies Act. A Annual
General Body meeting of GSCA was fixed on April 27 2008. This
was fixed in January Executive body meeting wherein Shrikant
Barve was also invited. Mr. Barve had offered the venue for
AGM and Ex. body had accepted Barve's offer and he had booked
a A/c hall for April 27 AGM at International Centre Goa
(ICG), Dona Paula. Infact January Executive meeting was also
held at ICG. But Sameer Salgaocars All India Chess
Association Vice President and President GSCA and others
cancelled that meeting and without informing Barve. Had that
meeting took place, everything would have rectified by now.
Now it is too late.
Please also note that Selection for Goa team to represent Goa
at or National B has not been held till date. For past 20
years it was always held in last week of May or First week of
June. Now as GSCA knows the status has not bothered to hold
selection tournament for GOA team to represent Goa at
National B.
