The original petitioner in the Board of Cricket Control India (BCCI) case Aditya Verma on Tuesday alleged that Amitabh Chaudhary had given a false undertaking to the Supreme Court in order to become BCCI acting secretary.
"If you ask me to make a comparison, former BCCI president Anurag Thakur made the mistake unintentionally. But Amitabh Chaudhary has committed the mistake intentionally. He was an IAS officer who applied for VRS. He has more knowledge of the law than us. But the reply which I saw as the petitioner, I was amazed to see a person misleading the highest court of the like this," Aditya told ANI.
"He (Amitabh Chaudhary) had claimed that they had gone with the decision of Supreme Court and did not allow any nominee of the state cricket association to attend BCCI's Special General Meeting on August 24," he added.
"I was shocked to listen the same becauseJharkand State Cricket Association (JSCA) has not yet implemented the Lodha Panel recommendations. And Debashish Chakravarty was made the secretary who was present at the meeting as the nominee. They are themselves making the mistake and conveying the court that they did not allow the nominee to attend the meeting," he said.
"Secondly, he had a given false undertaking in court in order to become the acting secretary of the BCCI. In one of the replies to an RTI to a cricketer from Jamshedpur, it was mentioned that state secretary Amitabh Chaudhary, secretary Rajesh Verma and treasurer P Sen were still signing as signatories.
Now, you are misleading the court. You are saying in reply that you did not allow the nominee in the meeting. JSCA has not yet implemented the Lodha committee reforms and there have been no elections. I will raise this issue on Thursday," he added.
