NewsX: N Srinivasan attends the IPL Governing Council Meet

  • 5 years ago
The BCCI's working committee meeting today in Delhi will be crucial in determining whether N Srinivasan is restored to his office as board president or whether he will remain on the sidelines in the wake of his son-in-law's arrest in the IPL's betting and spot-fixing scandal.

The meeting, which will be preceded by an IPL governing council meeting, was originally supposed to have Srinivasan re-take control of the BCCI's affairs after the two-member independent probe panel cleared the owners of Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals, as well as Royals co-owner Raj Kundra, of any wrong doing with regards to betting and spot-fixing in IPL 2013. Srinivasan had announced his decision to attend his first working committee in two months.

However, two days after the working committee passed the former judges' report to the governing council, the Bombay High Court termed the probe panel "illegal and unconstitutional". The order was a setback not only for Srinivasan's return but also to the already diminished public image of the BCCI. Following the court's ruling some BCCI officials such as Niranjan Shah, who has managed to be on the right side of the power equation year after year, called for a fresh inquiry panel to be appointed.
