BCCI, Modi fail to reach compromise
The Supreme Court has been told that attempts to find a compromise between the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and former IPL chairman Lalit Modi have failed, according to PTI.
The Court had given both sides until October 21 to work out a solution over the composition of the committee investigating charges levied against Modi.
Ram Jethmalani, who is representing Modi in the case, said that attempts to find a solution failed despite the best efforts of those involved. The next hearing will be held on November 11.
At the first hearing on October 21, the court had offered two suggestions for the compromise: to increase the size of the existing committee or have its three members stay away from the league's governing council, which is authorised to look into the disciplinary committee's report on Modi. The disciplinary committee currently comprises IPL chairman Chirayu Amin, BCCI vice-president Arun Jaitley and Jyotiraditya Scindia, the president of the Madhya Pradesh Cricket Association.
