"Under-pressure" to explain "criteria" for deleting "big names" from BCCI's Final Electoral Roll, BCCI has made it clear that proper and due procedure has been followed to finalize "eligible names" who can attend & vote in Board's AGM.  In a letter to all BCCI members and State Associations, a copy of which is with Republic TV, Electoral Officer N Gopalswami wrote:

" Electoral Officer received numerous objections in respect of entries on Draft Electoral Roll issued on 4 October 2019. Upon declaration of Final Electoral Roll on 10 October 2019, Electoral Officer has received requests to provide a response on treatment of specific objections and to clarify  process undertaken and materials and issues evaluated by Electoral Officer during scrutiny process of entries on Draft Electoral Roll.

"All objections received on or before 7 October 2019 by Electoral Officer were reviewed and processed by Electoral Officer. In so far as y related to compliance by Full Member and conduct and results of elections of Full Members, se objections were outside ambit of Electoral Officer’s Terms of Reference."
