The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is planning to go to Supreme Court asking for relaxation in rules in order to ensure that its current President Sourav Ganguli and Secretary Jay Shah could remain holding their chair. [News reference]
The BCCI has asked the Supreme Court to relax the "cooling off period" which came into force with Lodha Committee recommendations. Along with this, BCCI is also seeking approval for some of the changes it has made in its constitution in Oct'2019.
According to the current rules, both Sourav Ganguli and Jay Shah have to resign and BCCI is trying to avoid this. It is a clear case of selfish interest, since the BCCI President and Secretary are trying to bypass rules and keep holding power. This is what all the politicians try to do too - try to remain in power by hooks or by crooks.
I think the Supreme Court should cancel the BCCI petition and ask the BCCI to strictly maintain the rules. Otherwise if Supreme Court allows dilution of rules, the situation will become worse than before and all the reforms would go into dustbin.
