Lalit Modi ousted from Rajasthan Cricket Association

MUMBAI: Former Indian Premier League (IPL) commissioner Lalit Modi was ousted from the Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA) as the members of the association passed a no-confidence motion against Modi and his office-bearers at the Extraordinary General Meeting today (9 March).

With 17 out of 18 members casting their votes against Modi, Amin Pathan is expected to take charge as the new chief of RCA.

However, Modi loyalists alleged that their members were not allowed to participate in the general meeting and that their bus was even pelted by stones. RCA deputy president Mehmood Abdi, who is also a Modi loyalist, cried foul claiming that it was an intentional sabotage.

As per media reports, out of a total 33 district associations, only 18 could attend the meeting and since the majority was present, RCA members decided to go ahead with the meeting.
