N. Srinivasan was on Friday Sep 27,2013 restrained from assuming charge of BCCI
president, if elected to the post, by the Supreme Court which allowed
the Board to hold its proposed Annual General Meeting scheduled for
Sunday Sep 29,2013
“In the meanwhile, the proposed AGM of BCCI will be held on September 29
and the election in the AGM can also be held. In case Srinivasan is
elected as president, he will not take charge until further orders,” a
bench comprising Justices A.K. Patnaik and J.S. Kehar said.
The bench took strong exception to Srinivasan still holding charge of
BCCI when his son-in-law Gurunath Meiyappan has been charge-sheeted in
connection with the IPL spot-fixing case.
“Why he is in charge (as the BCCI President) if his son-in-law has been
charge sheeted? Why you (Srinivasan) are so keen to be elected?” the
bench said, making it clear that he will not take charge as Board
President till the matter is decided by it.
