BCCI President Sourav Ganguly has found himself mired in yet another case of conflict of interest.
The latest in a seemingly growing list of such cases is Ganguly’s association with Indian Super League side ATK Mohun Bagan FC, in which the RP-Sanjiv Goenka Group, owners of the new Lucknow-based IPL franchise, have an 80 per cent stake.
The cricketing body chief is a part of the football club’s board of directors.
A BCCI source confirmed to The Indian Express that it was a ‘clear case of conflict’ and added that Ganguly needed to realise he is the President of BCCI, not a player.
Interestingly, Goenka in an interview with CNBC TV18 Tuesday said that Ganguly may completely step down from Mohun Bagan, adding that he may vacate his role with the club the following day, only to later withdraw his comment.
