Nominee of the CAG in the council, Alka Bharadwaj has already objected to Shah�s presence at the meeting, arguing that the latter should go into a cooling-off after completing his term, as per the Lodha Committee recommendation.

The BCCI�s apex council meeting over video conference call on Friday might offer a legal intrigue with the nominee of the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) in the council, Alka Rehani Bharadwaj, and the cricket board holding two very different views on secretary Jay Shah�s eligibility to attend the meeting.

Bharadwaj has already objected to Shah�s presence at the meeting, arguing that the latter should go into a cooling-off after completing his term, as per the Lodha Committee recommendation. She has asked for the joint-secretary to �officiate� as the secretary instead.

Shah�s six-year term in office is said to be over and as per the Lodha reforms, approved by the apex court, he should go into a cooling off. But as a board official said, since the matter was sub judice � the BCCI has filed applications before the apex court, with a request to endorse the amendments in its constitution including tenure cap and cooling-off � status quo should be maintained.
