Court dismisses BCCI transfer application, RCA mulls PIL

The Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA) today received some sort of relief as the District Judge (Jaipur City) has dismissed the transfer application filed by BCCI seeking transfer of RCA suit from ADJ -4 Jaipur.
In another move, the suspended RCA is all set to file a PIL on behalf of the state cricketers against the BCCI, who has kept RCA away from the domestic calendar.
Despite this, the impasse between the Rajasthan Cricket Association and BCCI is likely to continue but as a consequence of this order pronounced today, the suit filed by RCA against suspension by BCCI of the state association and its consequential allied issues will now proceed in the court of the learned ADJ -4.

The matter came up for hearings during the lawyers strike in Jaipur. However, RCA deputy president Mehmood Abdi appeared in person for RCA and argued the case of RCA.
"The BCCI's attempt to delay the matter through this transfer application on totally unsubstantiated grounds of alleged bias to brow beat the judge proved futile. The intimidation trick of BCCI miserably failed as it could not meet the requirements to prove its allegations," alleged Abdi, who is Lalit Modi's trusted lieutenant.
"Moreover, BCCI wanted to take advantage of lawyers strike here to delay the matter. But ultimately justice prevailed and RCA has a reason to smile for a while at least. We would carry on with its fight against the unlawful suspension of RCA and the arm twisting tactic of the apex cricket body of the country," said Abdi.
