The BCCI's refusal to toe the line of Lodha Commitee's recommendations, is definitely in a bad taste, for the premier sports body. Hope good sense would prevail among the members of governing council, to accept the recommendations,and act accordingly.
A worrying trend is emerging, first with Karnataka, disobeying the Court's order, to release Cauvery water to TamilNadu and second with BCCI ignoring SC appointed Lodha Committee 's recommendations.
If this continues public will loose faith in Judiciary, if Court fails to assert itself in these cases. The issue gets settled, and become meaningful only when it initiates contempt proceedings against both of them. With regards to BCCI issue, I have read / heard some contradicting views on the subject, as some are of the opinion, that why should SC point fingers, only at BCCI, and not other Sports bodies? The Court can initiate, action against BCCI for their wrong- doing, but is it necessary, to decide the age, and the qualifications of members of the Sports Bodies and their Sub-Committees.? It is felt that the Lodha Committee report should be forwarded to the Govt of India, while the Govt should propose a comprehensive legislation including International Commitments of various Sports bodies, and place them before the Parliament. The Court shouldn't discriminate against BCCI alone. BCCI is well established and has done great deal of service for the Cricket. The Courts have so many issues and large volume pending cases etc and is it really necessary to spend so much time such issues?
