Karnataka State Cricket Association is now totally Lodha compliant

There were many things discussed at the meeting and the outcome was mainly positive. One of the most important issues was the terms of office bearers, the structure of the apex council and following change of bylaws after the new formations are chalked down. The nine-year term for the office bearers in the state will not be dependent on alike position in the BCCI. The utmost strength of the apex council is also one of the massive issues answered at the meeting. The Lodha Panel opined on a six-member group for state units, whereas KSCA has 26 members currently. The two stakeholders found a way out and the number has now been dragged down to 19. 

"The meeting went off well. KSCA was already almost 80% compliant. We had raised a lot of queries which we addressed and KSCA is now fully Lodha-compliant. Next we will have to get the changes incorporated into our constitution and send it back to the COA for approval before it is submitted to the Registrar of Societies," Desai said, reported TOI.

The eligibility criterion to contest elections in the state was also one of the massive issues cracked down at the meeting. As per the recommendations, members of the club that want to contest the KSCA elections have to be president or secretary of the club for a minimum of tenure of six years. Desai spoke about this move and has said that it has been done keeping in mind the best interest of the association.
