Complete election process by Sept. 14 to vote in BCCI polls: Electoral Officer to state units
The HinduBCCI electoral officer N. Gopalaswami on Friday made it clear that all the affiliated state units will have to conduct their polls by September 14 to be eligible for participating in parent body’s elections, which the CoA has tentatively scheduled for October 22. “Full Members who either have not been declared compliant with the Judgement dated 9th August 2018 or who do not complete the election process before 14th September 2019 and their representative, shall not be eligible to participate in the BCCI Election process,” a notification issued by electoral officer read. The notification states that state units save Delhi, Vidarbha and Assam, which are already Lodha-compliant, should complete their polls by specified date. The non-compliant units have filed IAs challenging various clauses like age cap, cooling off period, one person one post to name a few.
