Not above board

While allowing the Board of Control of Cricket in India to convene the AGM to ratify the election of new office-bearers, the Supreme Court strongly criticises the way in which the board functions. On an appeal by the Board against the decision, the Supreme Court in an interim order on October 11 stayed the High Court's order as also the nomination of Dalmiya as patron-in-chief. Besides, Agashe represented the Maharashtra Cricket Association at the September 12 AGM when an invitation was extended to Dalmiya to become the Board's patron-in-chief. It is also doubtful whether the Board could have gone into, if at all, the validity or otherwise of the meeting of the Maharashtra Cricket Association held on September 27, 2004."
