Can N. Srinivasan Attend Our Meetings? BCCI Asks Supreme Court

The Board of Control for Cricket in India on Saturday, moved Supreme Court and asked if N. Srinivasan can attend its meetings. Last month, the Board was forced to call off its crucial working committee meeting which was to discuss the fate of Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals in Indian Premier League.
The BCCI called off its working committee meeting in Kolkata on August 28 ‘sine die’ after Srinivasan was adamant on attending as a representative of Tamil Nadu Cricket Association. The BCCI said there was no ‘no legal clarity’ on whether the former BCCI chief could be part of its meetings.
The main issue against Srinivasan is his conflict of interest as there is no clarity on how his company India Cements has sold off its stakes in CSK.
Srinivasan though has clarified his position and said that he does not have any shares in CSK. This after India Cements Ltd in its board meeting decided to demerge the franchise CSK from ICL (India Cements Ltd) and form a new company called Chennai Super Kings Cricketers Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of ICL.
BCCI though feels there is a lot of ambiguity on the matter and has therefore asked Supreme Court to either shed light on the issue or send it to Justice Lodha Panel – the three-member committee that slapped a two-year suspension on CSK and RR due to its officials being involved in betting during IPL 2013.
