New Delhi, April 24: With numerous interim applications pending before the Supreme Court, amicus curiae P.S. Narasimha met officials from the state cricket bodies along with the three Committee of Administrators (CoA) members on Wednesday to discuss the objections of the state associations to certain proposals of the Lodha panel. The amicus curiae will file a complete report on the same as the SC bench of Justices S.A. Bobde and A.M. Sapre will meet to discuss the BCCI matter on Thursday. SC Appoints PS Narasimha as Amicus Curiae to Assist BCCI in Pandya, Rahul Controversy.
Speaking to IANS, a senior state official said that the meeting with Narasimha went well and the whole idea was to ensure that the genuine issues faced by the state associations were paid heed to and a solution was reached.
"Today the amicus met a number of state associations along with the CoA to try and arrive at a solution to the applications filed by the associations in the SC. It was felt that over a period of time, the CoA had gathered a lot of acrimony vis-a-vis the state cricket associations and that had resulted in not only a deadlock, but also the inclusion of certain restrictions with regard to administration of cricket," the official said. Another official hailed the efforts of Narasimha and said that such a step by the previous amicus could have helped solve issues much earlier.
"This meeting is also a welcome attempt by the amicus even though one isn't really aware as to how much ground can be covered at this late stage. If this approach had been adopted by the previous amicus, some real headway could have been made and issues could have been resolved amicably. But that period resulted in heightened acrimony in the court," hesday via latestly',560,360,'issocial','https://www.latestly.com/sports/cricket/bcci-state-bodies-look-at-supreme-court-with-hope-hearing-on-thursday-792412.html');return false" href="https://facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://www.latestly.com/sports/cricket/bcci-state-bodies-look-at-supreme-court-with-hope-hearing-on-thursday-792412.html" title="Share on Facebook">
