Politicians can participate in the affairs of BCCI: Supreme Court

By IANS English

New Delhi, June 30: The Supreme Court on Thursday (June 30) said that it was not against politicians taking part in the affairs of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) or interfering in its autonomy but only wanted that its activities promoted development of the game in the country.

Making its stand clear, the court wanted to know if the apex cricketing body has asked its auditors to conduct the performance audit of the funds flowing from it to the state cricketing associations.

The court said this as it reserved its verdict on the BCCI and its state affiliates red flagging some of the recommendations of the Justice Lodha Committee. They are particularly aggrieved by the recommendations providing for 'one state, one vote', ceiling on the tenure of the office bearers and presence of a CAG nominee on the BCCI board.
