4 major changes in the draft BCCI Constitution approved by Supreme Court

#4 Apex Council approved

The Lodha Committee had recommended the establishment of an apex council to professionally administer and manage the affairs of the BCCI. The Council would consist of nine members out of which five (President, Vice-President, Secretary, Joint Secretary, Treasurer and a member) will be elected by the General Body and others will be recruited using a transparent process.

The Court upheld this recommendation allowing for setting up of the Council consisting of Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other officers who will work separately from the General body in order to professionalize the management of the cricket board.
