The Committee of Administrators (CoA) has alleged that BCCI's office bearers -- acting president C K Khanna, acting secretary Amitabh Chaudhary and treasurer Aniruddh Chaudhry -- are trying to "subvert and frustrate" the orders passed by the Supreme Court.

In its ninth status report to the apex court, the CoA said: "The office bearers of BCCI are in collusion with various other persons, who attended the meeting held on June 22, 2018, clearly attempting to subvert and frustrate orders passed by this Hon'ble Court, by inserting limitations on powers and duties of the Committee of Administrators.

"This is being done with a view to hampering the ability of the Committee of Administrators to effectively supervise the management of BCCI though CEO."
"Hon'ble Court does not carve out any such exceptions pertaining to decisions of policy from powers conferred and duties cast upon the Committee of Administrators. It stands to reason that task of supervising the management and administration of BCCI as well as ensuring that the directions contained in the judgement are implemented and will necessarily require COA to take decisions on matters of 'policy'."
