Cricket News : ‘DDCA officials are like leechs’

Justice Lodha committee’s recommendations have managed to put Delhi and District cricket association on the back foot but DDCA has found out a way to deal with the situation. The recommendations of the Lodha panel put an end to proxy voting but ruling by proxy may still continue. That is evident from the number of wives and sons in the fray for the state body polls due on June 30. According to the ‘final list of nominations’, BCCI’s acting president CK Khanna’s wife Shashi Khanna is contesting for the post of vice-president. CK Khanna was a vice-president of the DDCA before court-appointed administrator Justice Vikramajit Sen took charge. Pushpendra Chauhan, the younger brother of former India Test opener Chetan Chauhan, has thrown his hat in the ring for the post of joint secretary. Chetan was DDCA vice-president during the previous regime. Rajan Manchanda, younger brother of former treasurer Ravinder Manchanda, is contesting to be the joint secretary as part of ‘Team Rajat Sharma’. Rakesh Bansal, younger brother of former DDCA president Sneh Bansal, is also in the fray for the post of vice-president.
