If BCCI changes reformed constitution, it would be ridiculing SC: Lodha panel secretary

The Hindu  

The BCCI’s plans to dilute reforms mandated by the Supreme Court amount to “ridiculing” the country’s highest judicial authority, asserted Lodha committee secretary Gopal Sankaranarayanan, who had a pivotal role in drafting the revamp. Mr. Sankaranarayanan feels the Supreme Court still has a role to play in the matter and should take appropriate steps, otherwise all its efforts to reform the BCCI’s administrative structure would go waste. “If this is permitted to be done and if it remains unchallenged in court and the Supreme Court does not either have a challenge before it or it does not take up suo motu, it will mean ridiculing of the Supreme Court and everything that it did over the years,” he told ‘ESPNcricinfo’ The proposal to change the reformed constitution came to light last Saturday when BCCI’s new secretary Jay Shah gave out the agenda for the board’s annual general meeting to be held in Mumbai on December 1. The most stunning amendments include altering the rules concerning the cooling-off period for office-bearers, relaxing various disqualification criteria and removing the need for any changes to the constitution needing approval from the Supreme Court.
