Rupa Gurunath Set to be the New President of BCCI State Association

New Delhi: The Tamil Nadu Cricket Association (TNCA) will hold its executive committee meeting on Sunday and former BCCI president N. Srinivasan’s daughter Rupa Gurunath is likely to become the first woman president of a BCCI state association.

It is on high peak unlikely that Srinivasan's daughter Rupa Gurunath will face any opposition with the last date for filing nomination being September 24.

With Rupa Gurunath taking over the Control, Tamil Nadu Cricket Association will remain under control of the Srinivasan family, as it has been the case for the better part of the last two decades.

The Supreme Court on Friday allowed the TNCA to hold elections to elect its office bearers. A bench comprising Justices S.A. Bobde and L. Nageswara Rao said that the election results will be subject to the final order.

It had been alleged that the state cricket body and four other state cricket bodies had not complied with the BCCI Constitution in its entirety. At this observation of the court, the Committee of Administrators (CoA) objected that the Tamil Nadu cricket body did not comply with the BCCI constitution.

Senior advocate P.S. Narasimha, who is assisting the apex court as Amicus Curiae contended that only four out of 38 cricket association had failed to adopt the new BCCI constitution. IANS
