Current issue about Mr gurunath Meyyappan's involvement in betting match fixing, makes me ask these questions
BCCI members are fully backing me (when they can’t legally
get rid of him, what else they can do)
Stadium is sold out (People love cricket, they came to enjoy
cricket but very clearly expressed themselves by ‘Booing’ when Mr. Srinivasan’s
name was announced)
We have a governing council to monitor IPL (This same body
was watching like spectators when Lalit Modi ran it and even after that there
is no stance of opposing anything which is supposed to be opposed- like Appointing
MSD as the VP of India Cements, which is an indirect additional remuneration than
the price they should be paying him US$1.8million part of the player retention
in 2011)
Governing council should have come out with a statement that
Gurunath Meyappan is not a owner, but it is BCCI president who makes the
announcement that there will be an independent investigation.
If the GC is genuine they have to take a stand whether Guru
is the owner or not, when they have been communicating with him as a owner, why
do we need a separate investigation.
If Guru is not an owner why not they put out the 2013 pass
issued to him, all of us will know whether he is a owner or not or what
capacity pass was issued to him.
Does India cements a publically owned company can send just
a cricket enthusiast to go and bid on their behalf, if they have sent him, can
they clarify on what capacity they have sent him to bid for players. Ultimately
it is the shareholders money.
What is the role of a Honorary member in the management of
the team, will India Cements clarify
Can GC of IPL clarify whether honorary members of a
management team are allowed access to the team dugout. Just to clarify this why
do we need an investigation agency/Committee.
Retired Judges are above board (former CJI KGB is under a
cloud, there are instances of Magistrates being arrested for accepting bribes,
like in ‘Gali Bail case’)
Sunil Gavaskar says “people have already concluded and any
report contrary to their conclusion will not be accepted prima facie”, fair
enough, it is wrong to pre-judge, however why not bring out material facts in
open and be transparent instead of appointing a investigation commission, which
is 3 member with two people from GC and submits a report to the GC/BCCI.
We know that Pass No.1 to 4 have been given to four members
of N. Srinivasan family in 2008 saying they are all team owners of CSK, similarly
passes must have been issued every year, let it be told now (Let Caesar’s wife be above suspicion)
instead of saying investigation commission, they can show us 2013 passes.
If Guru is not a owner why did India cements keep quiet when
he was claiming he was the CEO/Owner/Team Principal (or how can you question
the Son-in-law)
Betting/Fixing whatever may be the finding, Morality of a
person involved deeply with a team, which has millions of fans/followers, has
he not played with their sentiments, can any team which allows such things to
happen be allowed to continue to play in the league. May be Chennai deserves a cleaner
owner and a team that will make it proud.
