Board of Control For Cricket in India vs Cricke Association of Bihar & Ors

Bench: 3 — <UNKNOWN>, <UNKNOWN>, <UNKNOWN>

In Brief

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) case concerned the Court's supervision of committee administrator appointments. After ordering certain senior counsel to assist in nominating committee members, Mr. Fali S. Nariman disclosed a potential conflict of interest stemming from his prior engagement with BCCI in 2009. The Court discharged him and appointed Mr. Anil B. Divan instead, maintaining impartiality. The judgment also corrected an inadvertent drafting error in the Court's earlier order regarding eligibility criteria for office bearers.
