Will Appoint A Neutral Person To Run Administration Of IOA: Supreme Court

The Supreme Court Monday said it will appoint a neutral person to run the administration of the Indian Olympic Association and directed the secretary in the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports to interact with the International Olympic Committee on the issue. International Olympic Committee (IOC) on September 8 issued a final warning to IOA to "resolve its governance issues" and hold elections by December, failing which the world sports body will ban India. The executive board of the IOC, which met in Lausanne, Switzerland had also decided not to recognise any "acting/interim president" after Narinder Batra's ouster as Indian Olympic Association president and said it will deal with secretary general Rajeev Mehta as the main point of contact. A bench of Justices D Y Chandrachud and Hima Kohli asked the secretary in the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports to interact with the Director of Olympic Solidarity and NOC Relations in the International Olympic Committee.

Jay Shah - Sourav Ganguly - Explained: What the new Supreme Court ruling means for BCCI and its office bearers - timesofindia.indiatimes.com - India

Explained: What the new Supreme Court ruling means for BCCI and its office bearers

cricket administration in India, on Wednesday the Supreme Court allowed significant amendments to the Constitution of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), chiefly related to the consecutive terms of the office-bearers and the cooling-off period between terms in office. While the ruling, in effect, clears the path for BCCI president Sourav Ganguly and secretary Jay Shah to continue for a second consecutive term, though there is a strong buzz that fresh elections could be in the offing, the order needs to be properly understood. Timesofindia.com is here to make it simple to comprehend. WHAT THE RULE WAS EARLIERBefore we dissect the latest SC ruling on the matter, it must be noted that the apex court altered its own ruling of 2018. In 2018, the SC, based on the Justice Lodha panel's recommendations, had ruled that... 1) an office-bearer must undergo a three-year cooling-off period after two consecutive terms -- whether it be with a state association or with BCCI or even cumulative, i.e., first three years with BCCI and the next three years with a state association, or vice versa. Now this clause from the 2018 amendment of the Constitution wasn't allowing Ganguly and Shah to continue as the BCCI president and secretary, respectively, because both had served as office-bearers in state cricket associations of Bengal and Gujarat before being elected to the BCCI offices.

Cooling-off period to apply after 6 years at each level, but not if one switches levelNEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Wednesday effected major amendments to the constitution of Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) that would entitle its president, secretary and office-bearers to have two consecutive terms spanning six years in the board, even if they had served for three years in state associations immediately before entering BCCI. A bench of Justices DY Chandrachud and Hima Kohli, thus, significantly altered the 2018 SC-approved BCCI constitution, which had mandated an office bearer to undergo three-year cooling off period after two consecutive terms in state association, or BCCI or cumulatively.

Implications Of Supreme Court Order: Buzz Around BCCI Elections But Will Board Elect Srinivasan As Its ICC Representative?

Can't micro-manage BCCI functioning, says Supreme Court; to pass order on tenure of office bearers

BCCI is an autonomous body and it cannot micro-manage its functioning, observed the Supreme Court which on Tuesday also asked the apex cricket body of the country why it wants to have people above 70 years to represent the nation in the ICC. The remarks by the apex court were made during the hearing on the Board's plea seeking to amend its constitution concerning the tenure of its office bearers including its President Sourav Ganguly and Secretary Jay Shah by doing away with the mandatory cooling-off period between tenures of office bearers across state cricket associations and the BCCI.
