The Supreme Court today warned three top BCCI office-bearers of serious consequences if they do not give suggestions on the cash-rich cricket body’s draft constitution in accordance with its judgement.
A bench headed by Chief Justice Dipak Misra said the draft constitution should include the suggestions of the Lodha Committee in its entirety so that a holistic document can be placed before the apex court for a final decision.
During the hearing, the bench, which also comprised Justices A. M. Khanwilkar and D. Y. Chandrachud, expressed anguish over the “obstinate behaviour” of the three office-bearers — C. K. Khanna, Amitabh Choudhary and Aniruddh Chaudhry, which, the top court said, was coming in the way of preparing the draft constitution.
The three officer-bearers were present in the court in compliance with its August 23 order summoning them to appear before it.
