Lodha Panel News
Gupta has spoken about Kohli's business ventures and said that it comes across that it is in violation of the Lodha Panel recommendations that were approved by the Supreme Court .
The Maharashtra Cricket Association (MCA) adopted the recommendations of the Justice RM Lodha committee at its Special General Body Meeting held here on Friday.
The Indian cricket board has been opposing three main proposals on membership, balance of power between elected office-bearers and professional appointees like the CEO, and the tenure and cooling off period.
According to the introduction, it has has ten sections, with each section having ten questions. Meaning, there are hundred questions with answers. There are tables, lists and quotes from cricketers.
The HCA did not follow Lodha panel recommendations in the appointment of its selectors, he further alleged.
The BCCI has already zeroed in on four names as their enlisted commentators. They are Sunil Gavaskar, Sanjay Manjrekar, Murali Kartik and Harsha Bhogle, who is returning after a fall out with the BCCI post World T20 in 2016.
Not accepting what was termed by Lodha Panel as principles of good governance is an indication that old guards Niranjan Shah and N Srinivasan manage to stay relevant despite disqualification.
Rai once again stated what he has already mentioned in the fourth status report that their efforts to bring in consensus failed.
The Lodha Panel reforms states that a cumulative period of nine years for any BCCI office-bearers (separate 9 years for state units) with three-year 'cooling off' between every term.
The committee led by Rajeev Shukla also has Sourav Ganguly, Naba Bhattacharjee, TC Matthew, Amitabh Chaudhary, Aniruddh Chaudhry, Jay Shah as the other members.
The Tripura Cricket Association (TCA) and the Vidarbha Cricket Association (VCA) had become the first full members of the BCCI to implement the Lodha reforms way back in September.
The Supreme Court today appointed a four-member committee of administrators to run the affairs of the BCCI.
Earlier, the apex court had rejected nine names proposed by the Amicus Curiae`s - Gopal Subramanian and Anil Diwan for BCCI's functioning.
Shukla, however, will remain on the board of directors at the UPCA alongside 10 others.
The names to be considered for the post of administrators and representing BCCI in the ICC meet respectively, have to be submitted in sealed covers in the court by January 27
In an interesting move, the Indian board has now told the apex court that it wants to suggest new names to run its administration.
The two-member panel had on January 20 proposed nine names, but the apex court said they were too many.
The senior advocate continued to apologise, saying "Sorry My Lord, I had not intended to speak this word".
A-G Rohatgi said that that questions can be raised on the SC's judgement of 2016 which directed the implementation of Lodha reforms.
SC says that cumulative period of nine years in BCCI and state bodies would not be disqualifying criteria to become member of boards.
