This departure stems from allegations concerning the issuance of \u201cback-dated orders\u201d by the former Ombudsman.<\/p>\n<p>Sethi, who has served on the Sub-Committee since 2021, submitted his resignation letter directly to <strong>BCCI President Mithun Manhas<\/strong>. His decision arrived on the heels of a <strong>Supreme Court ruling<\/strong> on **27 October**, which mandated the conduct of JKCA elections to take place within **12 weeks** under the observance of former Chief Election Commissioner <strong>Achal Kumar Joti<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In his resignation letter, Sethi elaborated on the troubling circumstances leading to his exit. He stated, \u201cAs the Supreme Court has directed the holding of elections for JKCA and the effort to appoint a new Ombudsman has not been sanctioned by the Election Officer, unfortunately, back-dated orders are being issued by the former Ombudsman, dating them back to <strong>March 2025<\/strong>. This is concerning as no such order was logged or reported to me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>These allegations highlight potential irregularities impacting club management and voting rights within the JKCA. Sethi expressed serious concerns over these directives, asserting, \u201cThese orders are changing the club management and voting rights. This is an attempt to alter the voting nomenclature, which I do not wish to be a part of.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In his closing remarks, Sethi requested that his resignation be accepted, expressing gratitude for the opportunities he received during his tenure. He wrote, \u201cAs such, I tender my resignation from the Member Sub-Committee. Please accept and relieve me. I am thankful for the opportunity the Board has bestowed on me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This resignation raises pertinent questions about governance within cricket associations and the integrity of management practices. The JKCA\u2019s upcoming elections, now on a mandated timeline, face heightened scrutiny following these allegations. Stakeholders within the cricketing community await further developments as the JKCA navigates through this turbulent phase.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunil Sethi resigns as a member of the JKCA Sub-Committee, citing concerns over alleged back-dated orders issued by the former Ombudsman amidst upcoming elections.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1210,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[26],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-1211","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
