Cricket Association of Bengal Elections Uncertain Amid Voter Eligibility Concerns
The Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) faces uncertainty over elections for secretary, joint secretary, and apex council member posts scheduled for its September 24 annual general meeting. Six districts, through letters signed by district magistrates, have raised concerns about voter eligibility, specifically regarding members over 70 years old and those with nine-year tenures. CAB officials note that while such members can vote, they cannot hold office. The administration, led by Sourav Ganguly, awaits further district responses, with elections likely postponed and the AGM proceeding without them.
