New Delhi: The Supreme Court-appointed Justice R.M. Lodha Panel will meet on August 28 to discuss various issues concerning the BCCI, including multiple complaints received against the Indian cricket board.
“In the light of several complaints received, Lodha Committee will have an emergent meeting on Sunday 28 August in New Delhi,” a source close to the panel told PTI on Wednesday.
Asked about the nature of the complaints received, the source said: “That’s confidential. The venue of the meeting is undecided.”
The issue of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announcing its annual general meeting (AGM) on September 21 will also come up for discussion. There is every possibility that the committee uses its discretion and declare the AGM “null and void”.
The BCCI is set to submit its first Compliance Report with regard to implementing the 11-point reforms by October 15. However, during the Working Committee meeting of the BCCI last Monday, it was decided that the BCCI will wait for a verdict on the review petition it has filed in the Supreme Court.
Till the Supreme Court verdict is out, the advice to affiliated units is to go slow on the reforms regarding change in constitution of state units.
