| Anarchy rules JKCA as Chairman reduced to a puppet | | Joint Secretary encroaches powers in Farooq's absence | | Early Times Report
Jammu, June 24: Persistently in focus for all wrong reasons, Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association has been marred by complete anarchy with few of its office bearers brazenly over stepping their domains and the newly elected chairman Arvinder Mickey watching the mess from a distance as a mute spectator.
Sources in JKCA rue that unlike Aslam Goni, who exercised his command and authority over internal administration and vital decision making, Mickey has been reduced to a puppet as he has failed to ensure accountability and probity on part of the office bearers. "With all powers vested in him in the absence of president, Dr. Farooq Abdullah who is abroad, Mickey as the chairman has failed to ensure that the office bearers struck to their responsibilities and did not over step their authority," said a senior office bearer of the association.
The office bearers of the JKCA are particularly aghast by the arbitrariness of the Joint Secretary Jammu, Sudershan Mehta who violated his mandate by appointing five groundmen and two security staff at the JKCA ground at GGM Science College without consulting the central committee which according to the constitution reserves right to make such appointments.
"Joint Secretary has no mandate to make such appointments on his own and smelling a rat in the act of the Joint Secretary, the Chairman asked the Secretary JKCA to quash the appointments made in utter disregard of the JKCA constitution" disclosed a source, adding, "this is not the first time that Mehta has overstepped his domain; earlier he had designated the PA of former Chairman Aslam Goni as storekeeper without taking anyone into confidence; that decision also generated lot of resentment and was later quashed by the central committee". A former vice chairman Jammu commented that the Joint Secretary is taking liberty because the present vice chairman Rakesh Kumar is not well versed with the administrative matters.
Meanwhile, the camps started by JKCA have been witnessing total chaos due to lack of planning and foresight. "Hundreds of players have reported in the camps and there are neither enough coaches, nor resources to cater to training needs of so many budding cricketers" said another office bearer of the JKCA, who rued that it was another of the arbitrary decisions of the Joint Secretary Sudershan Mehta who held no deliberations with other members to work out a viable schedule for the camps. |
