BCCI suspends RCA on Modi's return

2014-05-06 13

Former IPL commissioner Lalit Modi was on Tuesday (May 6) elected President of the Rajasthan Cricket Association, setting the stage for yet another round of legal tussle between him and a livid BCCI, which had threatened to ban RCA in anticipation of this result. The election was conducted in December last year but the results were sealed following a Supreme Court directive. After much deliberation, the result was finally announced by a court-appointed observer here today. Responding to Lalit Modi's election as RCA President, BCCI has decided to suspend the Rajasthan Cricket body. The BCCI will also be issuing a showcause notice to RCA for allowing a Banned cricket administrator to contest the elections.
