Internet Desk: The fourth status report filed by the Committee of Administrators (CoA) and to be presented to the Supreme Court on July 14 which is led by Vinod Rai, took a dig as the members failed to fulfill the order of the court.
“Whilst disqualified persons have been forced to demit office pursuant to the aforesaid order (Jan 2), they continue to remain associated with their respective state units in different capacities and are able to procure nomination as representatives to the SGM…such disqualified persons are effectively able to do indirectly what they have been prohibited by the SC from doing directly,” the status report says.
The status report is a direct reference to former BCCI president N Srinivasan who attended SGM on June 26 as a member of association’s executive committee.
“Such disqualified members have vested interests in stalling the implementation of the SC judgment,” the status report further said.
The Supreme Court has been asked by the CoA to appoint an ombudsman after a conflict of interest in cricket can be laid out.
And, it has come down heavily on BCCI treasurer Anirudh Chaudhary and said he remained a “mute spectator, lacking courage or conviction to speak in favour of implementation of reforms”.
