BCCI board president N.Srinivasan, who was refusing to quit has finally stepped aside on the insistence of emergency working committee that meets yesterday at Chennai. The committee has entrusted the job to Jagmohan Dalmia. He will act as interim president of the board until the probe on spot fixing and betting charges completes.
However, N.Srinivasan speaking to media has said that not a single person in the committee meeting has asked him to step down from his post. But, it is who insisted the committee members that in the present circumstances it is not fair for him to discharge his duties as Board president. Hence the board has given charge to Dalmia as its interim president.
The members also appealed the secretary Sanjay Jagdale and treasurer Ajay Shirke to withdraw their resignations. However, Ajay Shirke has refused to reconsider his decision on resignation. He insists for a thorough investigation into the spot fixing and betting charge scandal and a strong action against those who found guilty in these cases.
