Supreme Court to name BCCI officials on January 24, modifies order

The Supreme court decided to announce the names of administrators for the cash-rich BCCI on January 24, even as it modified its earlier order by which a person having a cumulative tenure of nine years in any state association and BCCI would stand disqualified from holding any position in the apex cricket body.

The apex court’s modified order made it clear that the nine-year tenure of an office bearer in the state association or in the BCCI shall not be considered cumulatively. A bench headed by Justice Dipak Misra directed that the names provided by senior advocates for being appointed as BCCI administrators be kept secret. The amicus was asked to suggest the names of persons who could be best suitable as administrators for BCCI. The bench, also comprising justices A M Khanwilkar and D Y Chandrachud, agreed to consider the plea of Railways, Services and Association of Universities which lost the full memberships status and were downgraded as associate members.
