Well given that BCCI and its state associations are faction ridden cozy club of handful of cricket administrators-politician nexus controlling rich lucre by the majority faction in turn the, Lodha Committee report must come as very disconcerting for implementations. In fact most of the recommendations made with view to bring transparency and accountability in the cricketing bodies are anathema to their very arbitrary and opaque system of working which in the end necessitated such a report for cleaning up the cricket administration. Given this background the Lodha committee has precisely attempted to remedy the root causes of the set of such individuals holding multiple posts developing vested interest for themselves taking decisions involving ‘conflict of interest’. In fact it was the former BCCI boss N Srinivasan’s ‘conflict of interest’ case which actually set the ball rolling and rest as they say is history. However while he was rightly made to pay the price in the BCCI’s cesspool it is interesting to note that the Lodha committee has come up with illustrations of many other such serious cases of ‘conflict of interest’ involving current BCCI office bearers right from the top persisting which will need to be corrected too! Although justice Lodha has not explicitly named the individuals but he has cited specific examples of ‘conflict of interest’ making the names obvious as reported by IE of 7th Ja

(contd.).The prominent names Lodha points to include Shashank Manohar, BCCI President, Saurav Ganguly,CAB President,M.S.Dhoni, father-son duo of the Binnys, Gavaskar, Ravi Shastri etc. Why single out Srini alone ? Evidently the first point of implementation has to be to clear these conflict of interest cases given BCCI have an ombudsman in place already to look into this aspect. The other most significant recommendation of course is bringing the cricketing body under RTI towards making their working transparent and accountable for which of course Law has to be passed in the Parliament.

Justice Lodha panel need to be commended. The panel’s suggestions, if implemented, will definitely bring about revolutionary changes in the functioning of BCCI. The ever chair-sticking officials, most of whom have been clinging to the body for years and decades, will lose sleep and their hold on such bodies and are bound to make efforts the thwart its implementation.
good way for these retired judges to make money.prepare some useless reports in the name of reform.everybody knows what is honesty and what needs to be done.
