“The BCCI will have its AGM in Mumbai on September 21. It will be held as per the existing constitution,” BCCI President Anurag Thakur told reporters after its working committee meeting here.
However, the validity of the AGM will depend on the Lodha Committee as it can term the meeting null and void as per the Supreme Court verdict passed on July 18.
Asked about filing of the first compliance report to the committee on the 11—point reform implementation, Mr. Thakur said: “We have already filed a review petition. The state associations have been supplied with the document given to us by the three-member committee.”
However, Mr. Thakur, who recently attended the Asian Cricket Council Meeting in Colombo, said the continental body has expressed concerns about outside interference.
“In a recent meeting of the ACC, concerns were expressed about outside interference in Boards like Nepal, Sri Lanka and BCCI. The ACC asked about the possible implications of such interference,” said the BJP MP from Himachal Pradesh.
The details regarding Ranji Trophy’s neutral venues were also discussed. Apart from President Anurag Thakur and Secretary Ajay Shirke, prominent members like Rajeev Shukla and Sharad Pawar also attended the meeting.
