By The Assam Tribune

NEW DELHI, July 19: The Badminton World Federation (BWF) has placed a four-term limit on its president�s position besides approving the introduction of �geographical and gender representation� in its Council during the Annual General Meeting (AGM).

During its virtual AGM staged in Copenhagen on Saturday, the BWF membership approved changes to the constitution ensuring �at least 30 per cent of each gender on Council and among the representatives from each continental region.�

The decision was in line with the International Olympic Committee (IOC)�s recent directive to its National Olympic Committees (NOCs) to maintain gender equality in decision-making positions by 2020. � PTI
