SINDH GAMES ASSOCIATION (REGD.) VS PROVINCE OF SINDH Ss. 1 & 20---Constitution of Pakistan, Art.199---Sindh Sports Board Ordinance (VIII of 1980), Ss. 6 & 11---Societies formed by memorandum of association and registration---Applicability of Societies Act, 1860---Scope---Affiliation of Associations---Scope---Petitioner, an Association registered under Societies Registration Act, 1860, sought issuance of writ of prohibition refraining the Assistant Registrar of Joint Stock Companies (Assistant Registrar) from cancelling its registration on the basis of its non-affiliation with Sindh Sports Board (SSB) under the Sindh Sports Board Ordinance, 1980---Validity---Such was domain and jurisdiction of the Assistant Registrar to examine as to whether or not the aims and objects of the petitioner were in conflict with the object provided by Ss.1 & 20 of the Societies Registration Act, 1860, and to pass appropriate order in that regard---Issuance of writ of prohibition in the matter as prayed for by the petitioner would amount to thwart and stifle the duty of Assistant Registrar---Section 6(v) of the Sindh Sports Board Ordinance, 1980, provided that it was function of the SSB to affiliate associations and under S. 11(1) any seven or more persons could form an association for any particular game or sports by subscribing their names to a memorandum of associations---Under S. 11(3), the Secretary of the SSB issued an affiliation certificate of the association---Since SSB was the regulator and fund provider for the activities relating to sports, games and physical education in the province, it was therefore, mandatory for the sports associations to get affiliation from it---Writ petition was dismissed.
